The WP is off to a great smokey start. There was no lack of security in any of the stations we passed. There were at least 3 RPF's in each platform in every station and 6 RPF's assigned to each coach of the special.

We halt at the only station in the TT :P!!
The train halted at NZM for 12 minutes which gave me ample time to click more pictures of this beast. One can see many tourists taking pictures of the cab.
