Joy of watching twin diesel action. Southern Railway's only regularly twin diesel hauled train. And one of the only two regularly twin diesel hauled train... The Hubli-Kochoveli "regular" special is always hauled by twin diesels. Reason - extra freight power is always used for this train ()

Thanks Jimmy for the revert. Looking at this picture, also makes me remember the days the 6529/6530 Udyan Express used to be hauled by twin Gooty WDG3A's. It was a sight to watch. Now a single WDP4 takes charge of it up and down.

Dear Arzan, both locos were running. I have another pic with the heat distortion. The WDG 3a's never smoke like WDM 2's :-( The train ran almost continuously last year, but this year it did not run for many months
