Short Info about this scenario:-
So basically there were 6 Bankers for this freight. Its rare that a freight gets 6 bankers from Karjat all the way. But in this case it was not. As per observation and some facts I say that this freight train stalled in between Jambrung Cabin and Monkey Hill Cabin as the gradiet is steep in that section. Oh one thing to note here that the freight departed Karjat with normal 3 bankers only. So this fright was ahead of 22159 Mumbai Chennai Superfast express. I was tracking 22159 since 1 hour and it was showing the same location (Jambrung cabin) since last 1 hour. Even 22101 LTT Madurai which was trailing 22159 was halted before Jambrung Cabin in the ghat. Both the trains were in Ghat for 1 hour. So I just made a guess that there might be some fright which stalled midway. And My guess was absolutely right! It was this freight only. Okay so now the 6 bankers case. When a freight stalls it requires extra bankers to clear the section. So the extra 3 bankers were sent from karjat and it got coupled the the freight. So now it has total 6 Banker locomotives. It can easily clear the section now. Reasons for stalling 1. Heavy Load, 2. Heavy Rain in ghat which results in Wheel slipp. So yes this was the info about this train.
