TANGO 4 CONTROL

TANGO ४ CONTROL

  आयुश्यामध्ये अनेक मित्र भेटतात पण स्मरणात राहावे असे फारच थोडे ! राजेश आढाव त्यातीलच एक . monorail  च्या job मध्ये senior cum friend असलेला हा सर्वानाच मित्र म्हणून आपलासा वाटणारा , सुख दुःख share करणारा , शिकवणारा , गरजेच्या वेळी मदत करणारा असा उत्तम मनुष्य !
  job ला joint झाल्यानंतर माझी आणि राजेश ची ओळख झाली ती एक senior captain म्हणून ! खरच खूप शिकायला मिळाले ह्याच्याकडून ! TRAIN कशी चालवायची , तेव्हा कशी काळजी घ्यायची आणि इतर अनेक गोष्टी त्याने शिकवल्या . कधी TRAIN  RELATED  DOUBTS  त्याला विचारले आणि त्याने उत्तर नाही दिले असे  झाले नाही नाही .
  मदतीसाठी देखील पुढे ; मग ती पैशांची असो कि SUPPORT ची ! समंजस स्वभाव !
 ट्रेन चालवायची कशी हे पहायचे न तर राजेश सोबत तो चालवताना अनुभवणे हा होता . मी मुद्दामहून त्यासोबत अनेकदा गेलोय . CAPTAIN  ला असावेत असे सर्व गुण त्याच्याकडे आहेत . नीटनीटका , SHIRT  PROPER इस्त्री केलेले असा हा एकदा का CAPTAIN च्या SEAT वर बसला कि आधी देवाला नमस्कार करून मगच चावी फिरवायचा . त्याचा असा सुंदर गुण मी आजवर कोणत्याही TRAIN CAPTAIN कडे पाहिला नाही . MONORAIL ची SMOOTH  DRIVING  अनुभवायची तर राजेश चालवताना !!
  असो !
  त्याने दिलेलं आमच्या पहिल्या BATCH च TRAINING  आम्ही विसरणार नाही . त्याचा लज्जतदार जेवणाचा डब्बा तर नाहीच !
राजेश ला त्याच्या भावी CAREER  साठी मनापासून शुभेच्छा !!

When fully equipped the monorail system will have the capacity to transport 48,000 passengers per hour per direction (pphpd). 

Bombardier is designing, building and supplying the system-wide electrical and mechanical (E&M) elements forINNOVIA Monorail 300 system.

Completing 1 Year Revenue Service of Mumbai MonoRail : Reflections & Thoughts

On Completing 1 Year for Revenue Service of Mumbai MonoRail : Reflections & Thoughts

I was all fresh when i  left my College life with my head full of nostalgic memories . I was also so tense as I had no job in hand and then things happened so sudden that i didn’t get the time to think about. Someone said truly :-

"If your Bad Days are ON then don’t worry dude your Good Days are waiting for you."

My Bestest Friend ; Aniruddha guide me & told me to read !! श्री गुरूचरित्र !! ( Shree Gurucharitra ) daily . I started reading with full of believes  .  My another friend Shonali also prayed to God for my better job . ( ambadnya : Shonali ) At second   note my uncle Lalit Shivkar told me about  interviews  at  Mumbai Monorail  .  I went for the  Interview - &  with all those  bless  -  I  selected  for Mumbai monorail   project as a ' Train Captain ' . 

 I still remember the first day of Revenue Service  . What a crowd ...that day !! People were cheering , enjoying !! It was morning 06;00 hrs Chembur . My Train was packed with people . As i came in front of them , they started greeting to me & my colleague captain . They were shaking hands with us , Taking photos with us , we were just feeling like celebrity   . Still Today after one year , Every one have attraction about trai captain's work . Today also when we came in front of people while changing our captain's cab ; they looks at us like Star . They come to talk with us . Ask us various questions , Takes Photos !! Blesss !! Ambadnya !!! 

Time has moved along at rapid pace and sometimes even forget the day when it starts and it ends. This only comes when you get interest in your job and work from HEART.While traveling, eating, sleeping you think about work and its progress. 

and again Thanks & Ambadnya to My Bapu , My Mom & Dad ; who made mw capable for this Job , My Bestest friend ; Shonali who gave me support in my each step of Life , My uncle Lalit & all my Train captain colleagues & our Boss Mr. Paul Raj Tamilsilvan .

Thank you 
so much 
- with love
