FREIGHT Trains from GOA : Indian Railways EMD heaven

- Enjoy watching a variety of Freight Trains over the non electrified Double line section in Goa. Goa being the smallest state of India yet falls under two separate Railway Zones one being the South Western Railway (SWR) line that terminates at Vasco Da Gama and the other being the Konkan Railway (KR) which runs parallel to the SWR line for a short distance from Madgaon to Majorda and then deviates towards Verna and goes further upto Roha near Mumbai while the SWR line continues towards Cansaulim and goes further upto Vasco. A pure Diesel territory.
I was for a shock that I couldn't spot even a single Freight train powered by the chugging ALCo's every single train was hauled by a Electromotive Diesels (EMD) from Hubli, Gooty, Kazipet, Kalyan and Erode Diesel Sheds. A purely EMD dominated Zone.
Freight Traffic is pretty high due to the presence of Mormugao Port Trust located at Vasco where the Coal is unloaded from the vessels and further loaded on to Freight Trains for transporting Coal to various parts of India.Coal trains are seen all day long here , as seen in the video the loaded freight trains are covered with waterproof tarpaulin sheets to prevent water damage .
The KR line also sees a good number of freight trains how ever their main highlight is the Roll on - Roll off (RORO) Service offered for transporting Trucks over Rails. Presently KR is the only Zone offering such a Service in India . The service is available from Kolad (145 kms. from Mumbai), Verna (12 kms. from Madgaon) upto Surathkal (20 kms. from Mangalore) and vice-versa.
Benefits of RORO services : -
RORO services save precious fuel for the nation.
Speed of Ro-Ro train is fast enough as compared to movement by Road
Terminal time of loading/unloading is just 15 to 20 minutes in Ro-Ro.
Better turnaround of trucks.
No risk of accidents.
No wear and tear of trucks.
Less pollution as trucks are not plying on the roads.
No hassle of octroi, toll etc.
Location : Suravali , Goa. Suravali and Majorda are two intermediate stations betwenn Madgaon - Vasco (SWR) and Madgao - Verna (KR).
