Marusagar exp used to get a RTM WDM-3A before it got a WDP-4 link and it had 5 AC coaches then. Now it has 7 AC coaches which are towards the Ernakulam end of the rake. Before when it had 5 AC coaches, they were located towards Jaipur.

This is defenitely not Marusagar. marusagar has 7 AC coaches, including 4 3A. This train has just one. This is probably Kerala SK

Rake composition does not look familiar to Marusagar...AFAIK Ernakulam bound Marusagar has got 3 unreserved coaches in the front and no HCPV followed by AC coaches...and Goa SK cannot pass through KR on 17th July which was a Saturday...

During monsoon time, many KR trains get offlinks. Regular links go for a toss. Mandovi got a KZJ WDM3A, KJM WDG3A, KYN WDG3A a week back. If Marusagar got a WDM3A that day, it is not surprising.

Sachin, as per the notes which I have this was the Goa Sampark Kranti with the loco RTM WDM-3A 16790.
Correct me if this wrong..

BTW amazing shot

Beautiful pic!!...surprising to see Marusagar with a RTM diesel instead of BGKT WDP-4 and a HCPV...
