Nicely decorated indeed. I saw one arriving at Jaipur off the line from Ringas in 1991 with a similar deflector painting.

Thanks for the comments.
I am sure that Harsh's identification of the train as the Vaishali Express is correct as we travelled on it from Agra to Kanpur on 25 Feb 1979.

If station was named "Idgah Agra" then a portion of station board towards bottom left resembles saying "Agra" in hindi.

Jimmy, yes it is possible that I have uploaded it in the past. But this is a new scan. I screened the slide at a show last Saturday night, and I scanned it two or three nights later.

Sorry, Harsh: not immediately. Over the Easter weekend, I'll see if I can find the numbers, but I'm not hopeful.
