Igatpuri is a town and a Hill Station municipal council in Nashik District in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is located in the Western Ghats. Igatpuri railway station lies in Nashik District between Mumbai and Nashik Road on the Central Railway. Igatpuri is known for Vipassana International Academy, where ancient technique of meditation is taught called Vipassana. Trains on this route usually change locomotives on this stop and also change the guards and drivers. The place is one of the best places to visit in Maharashtra in monsoon. It is a hill station on busy Mumbai-Agra NH-3 only 45 km from Nasik and 130 km from Mumbai.
Igatpuri is a major railway station with all trains stopping for 20 minutes as there is a change of locomotive engine owing to the electric current (AC/DC) running the engine. There is a major presence of the Indian Railways within this small town.
This is the station from where 25 KV AC traction on OHE begins for CR trains starting from Mumbai CST.
The station is famous for its scenic surroundings, wada pao and idlis sold by vendors to commuters traveling in the train. The exit of Igatpuri railway station signals the proximity of Mumbai on down route.
Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST), is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an historic railway station in Mumbai Maharashtra, India which serves as the headquarters of the Central Railways. Designed by Frederick William Stevens with influences from Victorian Italianate Gothic Revival architecture and traditional Mughal buildings, the station was built in 1887 in the Bori Bunder area of Mumbai to commemorate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria. The new railway station was built on the location of the Bori Bunder Station and is one of the busiest railway stations in India, serving as a terminal for both long-distance trains and commuter trains of the Mumbai Suburban Railway. The station's name was changed to its present one in March 1996 and it is now known simply as CST (or CSTM).
Bori Bunder (alternatively "Bori Bandar") was one of the areas along the Eastern shore line of Mumbai, India which was used as a storehouse for goods imported and exported from Mumbai. In the area's name, 'Bori' means sack and 'Bandar' means port or haven (in Marathi); So Bori Bunder literally means a place where sacks are stored. In the 1850s, the Great Indian Peninsular Railway built its railway terminus in this area and the station took its name as Bori Bunder. On 16 April 1853 the Great Indian Peninsula Railway operated the historic first passenger train in India from Bori Bunder to Thane covering a distance of 34 km (21 mi), formally heralding the birth of the Indian Railways. The train between Bori Bunder and Thane took 57 minutes at a distance of 35 km (22 mi) apart.

My first experiment with compiling a couple of videos shot by me into a single movie. Perhaps this had to be the videos I shot when I was on my way to Mumbai onboard 12140 Sewagram Express. My train was running late by 3.5 hours at Igatpuri because of loco derailment of a train at Asangaon which comes in the Kasara - Kalyan Section of Central Railways. I tried to concatenate all the videos into a single movie so that my viewers dont have to search or wait for them. This movie is just my maiden experiment with editing and compiling videos but I hope my purpose of exhibiting the famous Kasara (Thull) Ghats is fulfilled through this video. The movie begins with departure from Igatpuri Railway Station where most of the trains have a technical halt for loco change. As we all know that Mumbai C...
A note before you play this video: Apologies in advance for the shaky video as I shot this handheld with my phone. The YouTube stabilizer seems to have improved it a tad bit though. Also, please turn on Annotations for this video for more details. This video was shot on the last day of the 10-day Vipassana meditation course that teaches you a meditation technique taught by the great Gautama Buddha and passed on to our generation by the Late Shri.S.N.Goenka who lives through the audio and video discourses. Vipassana is much more than just a technique. It is a way of life. An experience that stays with you forever. I am going to soon add a link to my blog post that will describe the experience in detail. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments section. Again, leave the a...

Sandhan Valley is a part of the beautiful Sahyadri mountain range and offers a challenging trek. It is also called the Valley of Shadows because at some places the width between the rocks is less than three feet thus obstructing the rays of the sun casting shadows that make it difficult to click pictures due to poor light. On the west side of Bhandardara region is Samrad, the base village to Sandhan Valley. Samrad village is the starting point before the decent to the valley. Bhandardara is extremely beautiful and scenic making it a must visit place. Sandhan Valley is surrounded by mighty mountain ranges on all sides. The best way from Mumbai to get to Sandhan Valley is to take a Central Railway train bound for Kasara. Thank you for watching. For latest updates on my travel trips follow...

October
And the trees are stripped bare
Of all they wear
What do I care
October
And kingdoms rise
And kingdoms fall
