Merciless WAP-7 thrashes the quite rural evening silence quite arrogantly

You want peace?? Sorry, its only found in the dictionary.. Go to hell, go to heaven, go to concrete jungles, or go to the rural villages.. But peace is not guaranteed..
Lao...
more... Tzu once said:
If there is to be peace in the world,
There must be peace in the nations.
If there is to be peace in the nations,
There must be peace in the cities.
If there is to be peace in the cities,
There must be peace between neighbors.
If there is to be peace between neighbors,
There must be peace in the home.
If there is to be peace in the home,
There must be peace in the heart.
Do we have peace in our heart??
30203 GOM shed WAP-7 (now transferred to HWH) smashes the peace and quiet rural evening with its sheer honking, and thunderous speed.. For a couple of years, ER banned GMO WAP-7 from entering its territory following the derailment of 12302 Howrah Rajdhani Express at Baruipara. And high officials banned the locos from running at more than 110 km/hr..
Finally daddy of ECR, i.e. ER decided to let the GMO WAP-7 return to their Kingdom, before the whole fleet is transferred to HWH..
Be it ER, ECR, WAP-7 or WAG-7, these iron monsters are nothing but disturbing elements for these small stations... Hajigarh is a small town situated on the high speed HB Chord section.. All the Expresses arrogantly skip the station without any mercy.. Sometimes they dont even honk, though there's a level crossing adjacent to the platform premises.. So the people's first and last choice remains the EMUs.. And a few railfans hate these slow-mo EMUs.. For such people, I want to say... Please give a thought for these villagers.. You are shattering their peace.. Atleast give them a chance to visit the metro and cosmopolitans to earn a living.. Like you, they too have a family.. Just the difference is that you switch on the AC in the night, and they switch off their lamps..
Train is 12339 Howrah (HWH)- Dhanbad (DHN) COALFIELD Superfast Express, which follows the Howrah- Burdwan- Asansol- Dhanbad route.
