Good catch! Please switch off that date/time feature on your camera. It spoils a good picture!!

A gorgeous smoker, look at the carbon deposit.

Although the carbon deposits around the radiator may give the impression the loco is always run SHF it's unlikely to be the case! When running SHF (at speed) the engine exhaust gases trail past the (vertical) radiator outflow and are forced sideways, thus blackening the side of the hood. The inflow into the radiator may also contibute to the effect. When travelling LHF the exhaust gases are only forced down in the gap between the short hood and whatever it's hauiling, hence the noticeable blackening near the top of the SH. I bet this one's a real smoker, all the same.

Buffers of some of the WDG-4s have been removed. Some of these locos still retain the buffers.

Wasn't this the same train that had derailed at the same place about 10+ years back??? BTW, are there any speed restricions in place, as they people sseem to bbe walking too close to the rails.

Another excellent shot! May I ask what happened to the back of the rake? Is it a huge gradient or is it lens distortion?

Note the solar panels which can be seen at some isolated stations. The first such installation was at Bisanattam, near Bangarapet, in c.1988
Also, the correct spelling is Braganza.
