A single WDG-4 class locomotive speeds through the grades of Moula Ali area near Secundrabad with a long BOXN load in tow. It was at least doing 90 KMPH when this shot was taken! (Vivek Mathur)

As far as I remember, the load was not empty. And yes indeed there is a down gradient after Moula Ali station which would have helped the efforts of the WDG4 to clear the section in a hurry.

Excellently taken. @Milind :- If you can closely see , the load must've actually accelerated very fast because it has observed a huge down dip [descending gradient] before starting to climb the Up Hill [ascending gradient].
