22201 Sealdah - puri Duronto Express hauled by 22387 Howrah WAP 4 started 10 mins late at 8:10 pm from platform number 9A of Sealdah. On the left one can see almost 7.5 hrs late fog affected 12314 New Delhi - Sealdah Rajdhani Express waiting to be taken to the carshed. As my train draws itself out of the platform after much struggle of changing tracks and coming on a straight track it faced a hard parallel competition from 31337 Sealdah - kalyani Simanta local. The result of which can be seen from the video. At 5:53 mark one can notice the nice curve my duronto makes at the Sealdah outer meeting another Sealdah bound emu. I thank its lp for the flash of light which can be seen at 6:10 mark. After this starts the fight to overtake one another. The Kalyani bound emu falls behind for some seconds but its in no mood to loose to the prestigious duronto breed and sparking honking shows that the emu's are experienced players also. Its accelerates at a great speed leaving my duronto behind. But within no time emu started to decelerate as it approaching Bidhannagar Road and durotno blasts through the station. One can also see at the last lighted up Kolkata station. Notice the sparks by the emu speacially after Kankurgachi RRI at 7:19 mark. Camera: Sony Cybershot WX7
