It was holi and I was suppose to be in Talcher Thermal Power Station, Talcher, Orissa. But there was need to be something for escaping out from the plant. Actually I did not want to spend the holi in the Plant, so found some place to escape out. You are in Orissa and do not visit Sri Sri Jagannath, then it would be a sin. Oriya people also love to know if some one is egger to visit the Puri. So, ask the employees in the plant and they told me how do I make a visit.

It was Saturday; 20.03.10, and I started for Puri. There is a Angul-Puri Daily Passenger from Talcher Road station next to the plant. The right time to the station is 6.05 a.m. and usually come at 6.15 a.m. The fare is Rs. 26 upto Puri. In that morning there were lots of people in the station and destination was Puri.
The train was almost empty, so did not trouble to get seat. It was a wonderful scenic beauty when I started my journey in the February’s morning. It was cool temperature outside and I was shivering not to having a woolen shirt. The train was passing near the NALCO, Jindal, etc. There are lots of plant coming up in the Orissa, because the region is coal and mineral rich. The geographical area is stony
