@Vivek, its surely not an RMS. Instead looks like part of an ART (Accident Relief Train) consist.

Data transmission will be poor over GSM as Thull Ghat has poor network coverage.

@Harsh, you don't seem to have said anything different from what Sachin has commented. None of the pantos look as though they're in the process of being lowered.

What is the method of transmission of data from the loco to the central facility? GSM based mobile networks looks like the only option since IR does not have any other wireless network at its disposal. If mobile networks are used, is data sent over GPRS/EDGE or via simple SMSes?
