Going Back in Time - METRE GAUGE in TAMIL NADU, INDIAN RAILWAYS

Nostalgia at its best !
I saw an old friend 6281 standing peacefully in Tiruvarur siding. 6281 6287 ( with red and yellow livery matching the Vaigai Express) 6130 6330...all these brilliant YDM4s used to work the Vaigai exp Pandian , Rockfort and other iconic trains.
The typical tractor like sound of the loco is music!!
You must gift this video to the railway archives.
Once Tiruvarur station was famous for its cooperative Milk sold on the platform..don't know now !
I still remember the conversations my brother and I used have during our travel to Chidambaram from Chennai in Chozhan Express in 90s fighting over the power of Electric and Diesel Loco 🤣
never travelled in a meter gauge train... but seen them so many times on my way to Velankanni at Ponmalai and Thiruvarur railway stations.. at the first moment I was in love with them...It was a rare feeling when my train stops at Ponmalai. I would look out for the old metre gauge tracks.. and feel something is missing... It's a sad thing that the metre gauge trains are no more... also I never had an oppurtunity to travel in the metre gauge Kollam Sengotta train route. But recently I travelled through that route in broad gauge. after that I regret that I would have made that trip earlier before the gauge conversion.. It would have been much better in metre gauge....😊😊😊
anyway.. keep up the good work...
I missed all those beautiful days 😢
Train as well as stations look ugly.
A throwback in time as far as the signals go..
On my last visit Nov 2017, from Trichy to Nagapattinam, the entire stretch has been converted to broad gauge. I traversed this route before the Tsunami, which was closed at that time for gauge conversion. There was a setback during the Tsunami where most of newly laid broad gauge tracks were washed out. Today there are few signs of the once beautiful metre gauge track - rather sad
Travelled up and down by this train.. my last meter gauge journey..
After seeing lord Piravaimarundeswarar in Thiruturaipoondi town..
Tiruthuraipoondi Jn to Tiruvarur Jn évening train .. to Thayagaraja temple
Next morning Thiruvarur To Pattukkottai ... then by bus to Mannargudi Rajagopalaswami temple.
Worderful and Nostalgic experience..
Thanks for this video
I have travelled from Madurai to Madras Egmore by Vaigai meter gauge express। The green and Yellow livery are unforgettable.
Which year?
I have travelled in metre gauge from Madras Egmore to Madurai by metre gauge in the year 1983. Thereafter, from Madurai to Rameswaram by night train M.G.
Please explain to me what is the meter guage train? Please tell ❤️
@@madurai5437 1000 Meters Railway Track with medium sized trains
@@davidalexsebastiank6250 thankyou
Distance between 2 Tracks is 1000 MM medium size Trains
Once upon a time metregauge trains ruled maximum parts of Tamilnadu. Now all in memory only. Thank you friend for this video
Its a very sad thing the meter Guage trains no more to see
Quite nice. I particularly liked the stop at Tirunellikaval. A relative worked there for some time!
Sir the steam crane at 0:45 , ydm4 idle at 08:30 , sound and trashing , old building, waiting hall, signal box, and the primitive interlock gate, lower quadrant Semaphore signals bring tears 💧😢 to my eyes.
In the British days a points man's job was to lock the points for passing the train and then unlock the signal lever for signalling. That's why he/ she is designated as Pointsman/ woman.
And the signal box is just a box with all levers. lock there, unlock here. Nothing else in the box.
This may not be known to most pointsmen today.
Names of tamilnadu villages and stations are filled with divine fragrance.
YDM4s were the kings at that time. Reminds me Bodinaikannoor
Great Effort .History recorded . Applauses
Good
Meter Guage train are Vintage Collection
It take 1 Min to read station name for me
ha ha haaa...such big names
While BG trains are brute speed, MG trains are the classic ones, what with their beautiful oscillations
MG engines will also run at max 110 to 120 kmph comfortably but bogie pulling capacity is less than BG...my father worked as railway driver
In my childhood every year used to travel from Chennai Egmore to Mayiladuthurai by meter gauge chair car Chozan Exp and return to Chennai Egmore by Train 110. Missing my memorable days
Antha YDM, semma enna oru gambeeramana notching sound, athellaam kettu romba naalachu. Simply superb
Really gone back in time, we didn't even missed that old token exchange and some (not so good ) sounds of ydm...
Natrajan....
Puthandu Nalvaztukal to u & ur parents.
Yes, metre gauge travel is awesome.
We took afternoon train from Ehzumbur to Rameshwaram & back.
I don't remember the train no.
It was metre gauge.
Awesome run.
Rewinded me back to those days.
Mega Nandri.
Only memory remains.
Take care.
God bless u.

এই রেল রেলপথ ছিল আমার স্বপ্নের রেল। কিন্তু দুঃখের বিষয় হল এসব এখন অতীতের সামগ্রী।আর ফিরে আসবে না।তা এনিয়ে আমার এতো কষ্ট হয় কেন মনের গভীরে!
At 8:30, as per railway's regulations, the guy is supposed to hold the green flag in his left hand & red flag in right hand...
Its not Mandatory :)
Red flag in right hand is preferred since most of the people are right handed :)
Please cover Egmor nellai line
Nostalgic journey.Must be the only few remaining MG sections in Indian Railways.
Sadly already closed
@@NatarajanC12119 Nilgiri Railway
Those blue colored coaches ? Equipped with vacuum brake or air brake bcs i have heard that blue icf comes with air brake whereas red icf comes with vacuum brake
Beautiful Memories
Natarajan,A food for thought. Since you are from B'lore if you can catch hold of some of old photographs of city station way back 1960's. The present 1St.platform was narrow gauge to Dhoddaballapur. The 2nd one B.G.towards Chennai. 3rd,4th,&5th towards Poona&Mysore M.G.The Goods Yard was in Cottonpet south of city Station. The S.M's office was in-between P.F 2&3.There was no Mejestic, Bus Stand. The city Buses will come inside till present portico. If you can find any retd. Rly.employees basically from the Anglo Indian community, the may have old photographs. Chennai has old collection including the first station Rayapuram.I know it's not easy to reconstruct history. My best wishes.
I tried alot on these. Could not find any help till date. Had shared few info which I had during a live stream.
Platform No.1 NG line was towards Bangarpet via Yeshwantpur, Yelahanka, Devanahalli, Chickkaballapur, Kolar
Platform No. 3,4 & 5 was also for Hyderabad MG line via Yeshwantpur, Yelahanka and towards Poona via Yeshwantpur, Hubli
Always a love place Tamil Nadu nice bro:-)
Steam engine , meterguage
Banglore line to Miraj, near banglore mysore, so beautiful
I think in southern Railways
Longest Meterguage... Service was..
Chennai to Shengottai.

Nice video. Wish to a Happy and Prosperous Tamil New Year
Beautiful memories
Why I can't see the comments? Anyways awesome video.
blue livery metergauge, now broadgauge will run from feb
Awesome clips...
superb
Sir do have Banglore Miraj meterguage line video
That was so orsam, childhood, days
1985,80
Always regret not travelling by meter gauge. Spent 3 years in coimbatore, where I could have taken the palakkad pollachi meter gauge, but didn't do it.
Bro a small request please could you do a Railway fanning in the Rail line between Guwathi and Howrah
I will some day :)
But there's no metre gauge train on the route. In 1985, I took a steam engine driven Katwa passenger from Howrah to Nabadwip Dham. It was so serene then. I long for those days.
Meter gauge... Blue boggies ? I saw for the first time...
Best video ever
Very nice my fav ydm train

These ydm's notching sound is like that of a tractor, not like the real loco sound that would be heard in wdm's

Gauge conversion when??
Going on
bhai meter gage ka MPS kitna hota h
DBZ Railfan I think 75...not sure
Sashbgm 90 bro
ok
It was 45 to 50 kph on this route.
The normal MPS on metre gauge was 90 kmph with 50 kmph restriction through station limits for token exchange ( single line sections ).
The Vaigai Express introduced between Chennai Egmore and Madurai was the 1st MG train booked at MPS 100 kmph ..restricted between Sholavandan and Dindigul stations.
On the congested suburban section from Egmore to Chinglepet it was a permanent speed restriction of 80 kmph for this train and 75 kmph for other trains till passing Chinglepet.
lucky guy ...
13:58 .... your long term profile pic
Swaraj tractor sound same❤
Anna we need pollachi dindugal mg I am udumalpet
