Prashanti express shot from the low platform of Thinnasandra station. Gooty WDM3a sounds very much
like a Steam engine here. The baldie forehead of WDM3a completes the illusion of a WP bearing
down on you. The trees that I am standing under to shoot this videos is the same location from
where the Nagarcoil and Karnataka express emerged from, that can be seen in the previous videos above.

Nice sounding KJM WDS6 #36016 seen here hauling a works train of ballast hoppers into the siding at
BYPL. I was surprised initially to hear a YDM4 like exhaust in the distance. WDS6 shares the same
powerpack as YDM4.

UBL WDP4 #20001 hauled SBC-SC express. Callous jaywalkers are crossing the tracks prompting the driver to
employ the powerful horns of the WDP4. It is not a surprise that this horn sounds very much like
the horns on locos in USA.

Again, UBL WDP4 #20001 hauled SBC-SC express climbing the gradient effortlessly. The driver lets go a short
blast of the powerfull horn to scare away a mongrel which had strayed onto the tracks.
