It must have taken more than 48 hours to cover the distance of 1662 km (1032 miles) 100 years ago. Also, compare the vast open spaces outside Madras Central station to the chaos today.

I wonder if the loco is actually 766 as it appears in later photos? I could not find a MSMR 4-6-0 numbered 667 in Hughes part 1..
