Railway never wants to finish work in time. Prg Station se Rambag ROB ke 200 metres west tak double line daal di gayi thi teen mahine pahle hi.
But they are not starting work from this place to Ald station east place where Ald-Nyn NCR, Ald-Aly NER and Ald-Prg NR line meets.
This remaining work is only 400 metres out of which 300 metres already has a old line (military siding) of british era, whose sleepers have entered/pressed in soil and tracks have rusted. The railway just have to replace sleepers and tracks...
more... in this 300 metres and no soil levelling required. Only 100 metres require clearing of jungle, soil levelling and track laying.
There is no problem of land also in this 400 metres as railway quarters are there adjacent to it and space for laying two more lines is there. The only small problem, which contractors may be pretending is presence of two 25kv wires coming perpendicular from SSP to feed the Ald-Prg section (single wali present line).
