Goa express LHB rake in transit video on YouTube. ЁЯШНЁЯШН Hoping to see this at VSG soon. As per the owner of the video he captured it on 5th April 2022. Video upload on YouTube by : Uttam Naik Sugali.

days it ran with ICF rakes? Seems like Goa express will get all 5 LHB rakes at once I suppose.
I think SWR don't allot rakes one by one like SR did with Mangala they go for all rake at once which in my opinion is better. Yeah VSG is fully occupied i agree but atleast could be stabled at Kalem and Sanvordem.

These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
