I used to travel on this rail route in the 60s when steam locomotives hauled the coaches. Engine changed at vpm and stopped at acharapakkam which was the watering station. Schoolboy memories. Cholan express janathaa express , boat mail, madura parcel, trivandrum fast passenger are some of my childhood wonders. Thanks for this excellent coverage. I am moved to tears to remember those simple, innocent life.
I used to travel with my Mom during 1990's to Kumbakonam in Cholan express .YAM1 & YDM4 engines used to do the honour.Remember those days while watching this video.My mom is no more .
Beautiful and those days in year 1992 this train used to start 7:30 AM from Trichy junction. Most of the people daily commute to Tanjore , Kumbakonam use this train. Students from Pondi Pushpam college, Annamalai University Chidhambaram AVC college Mayavaram enjoyed this journey. Those who wish to witness the rich fertile land in Cauvery delta should travel on this train. Excellent Vlog and great work. Keep posting.
@@kannangk5406 there was one Ajithkumar movie called Jee made out this theme; college boys travelling in this train. Another sensational hit movie with train scenes in this route was T Rajendar’s Oru Thalai Ragam.
This train has had multiple route changes. It came about in the early 80s right after Vaigai Express was introduced and used to run up to Madurai. They used the same rolling stock as Vaigai Express and used to change names with the idea that they have two daytime super fast trains. Unfortunately, both trains were perennially late with mixups and they cut the route to Tiruchy instead of Madurai but still ran on the chord line. I see they have changed it to main line now. Fun times and chaos when it was all MG. They both also had special livery when they were introduced.
This video took me to early 1970 s. Cholan express used to be hauled by tambaram based YAM1 loco upto villupuram and there after by YP steam locomotive based at Villupuram. Of course it was a 5 hour journey upto tirupadiripuliyur known as cuddalore then. Every thing is changed but the policeman's big pot belly. Thanks for the video man. I guess you made it for people like me.
Video was just wonderful and my stress was over completely. Just a request,in the future rail journies please do give information about the trains on the other side in the station before the departure and passing of trains during journy with the respective locomotive information. Tnx🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
See two different mile stone numbering at Ponmalai, 401/7 seen at 1.16..57, 401/9 at 1.17.27 and continues to 402/0 and another series 337/6 at 1.17.48, 337/7 at 1.17.59 and so on. The first series are the distance from Chennai beach to these points via Cudallore main line (This train route) and second series is via Vriddachalam chord line, (the Pallavan and Vaigai Express route). See again while entering Trichy on the traction poles distance at 339/26 at 1.18.29. Distance is 340 km from Chennai Beach to trichy via Chord line.
It took me tomy college days 1990 ... Golden days. It was a prestigious train with diesal engine at that time. Other train like tpt exp used to be steam engine
Excellent coverage. But it's a pity they have electrified the mail line route also. The charm of diesel engines roaring past acres and acres of green fields and small villages will become a thing of the past.
You know why i like your videos, because you let the wind and the sound of the tracks do the commenting. Please add the food they provide you on the trains. Loving your video's friend. Take care.
Nice ! enjoyed it very much. Very well done. Brought back old memories. Cholan express is the train I used to mostly take to travel from chennai to mayiladuthurai :)
I am residing in Nanganallur, cheenai. Our Nanganallur rail commuters are using pazavanthangal rly stn., To go to their work place. school students, college students to go their respective school/college. The pazavanthangal rly., Stn., Is very nice.
Vasant Kerai from London hi and Namaste no maps dates all there is road views of railway no english subtitles please if you want to be supported by your viewers and can be improvised by much more it gets boring come on be ahead.
A wonderful, dynamic and informative video. Some segments could have had longer material to view and comment on. Not a criticism just that I enjoy your photography and am open to more of what you have to offer...Sorry for my verbosity !
Uzhavan express next! actually I have to go to Thanjavur or Trichy depending on when college is reopening! I hope UZHAVAN and Cholan Express are the a good choice! which one is your pick for overall comfort bro? need your choice!
Nice Capture and compilation. A small request. At 41:26, in the video, Cuddalore Port is misspelled as Cuddalore Poer. Please edit and change that. Many Thanks.
@@_the_train_guy Ok. Thanks. Henceforth, please review thoroughly the contents, including textual content, for possible errors and then upload after corrections, if any. Thanks.
Nice -- but I not see any passengers -- get down train or get in train in the stations the train stopped! I understand there are passengers inside the train..!

Woww greenish chennai during Oct-Nov rainy season. Miss my city
All track line separations captured. Fantastic!
Nice to see greenery on both sides of the track! Praise the Lord God Jesus Christ!

Thanks for pointing the mistake out. I am sorry about that, but I don't think it is possible to edit it now. I shall try to avoid in future. :)

Just for Interest : What was the RPF announcing at Cuddalore Port station ?
Warning people not to cross the railway tracks.
@@_the_train_guy okay. I thought they are making people aware so that they wear masks properly & try to maintain social distancing
The train guy, this train must extent upto Dindigul.
I am going to Trichy on 18 bro by pallavan
