Correct this is a midpoint spot between Nagnath and Monkey Hill.

@Avishek,
The location is the Monkey Hill Side Portal of Tun 40UP, of the UP Line (Aka)Nagnath Line. Right behind Ashwin, should be Zenith Falls Viaduct (#3), Between MHC and NAG in the Bhor. Nearest Commercial Stn would be KAD, But the nearest halt to get to this spot, would be from MHC.

Cool shot....
but I am thinking of the three lady!!!!! How did they manage to seat on the buffer and hanged from the from the side?

Please tell me the location? And the nearest station?

Thanks Ashwin, I am sure the LP wont allow guys to hang in the forward direction of the loco since they could get crushed or whatever if they loose grip/balance. anyway quite a risky thing indeed.

Thanks to all :)
@Milind: The bankers are heading into the tunnel (Down the Ghats). These guys can be seen hanging at the end of the trailing banker or between the two bankers sometimes on CBC or Side buffers as seen here.

Fantastic.....was the loco going in or coming out? were there more 'passengers' on the other side of the loco as well?

Too good a capture. Truly fantastic!
