few clarifications..

The empty rake of Janmabhoomi was being shunted into the yard.

The small shelter is for TXR staff and pointsmen to rest.

The shot was taken on a loco pilot box on the platform. You cannot carry tripods around in railway station like SC and shoot at will. I wish it were so easy... i have 3 sec exposure for this picture and the cab lights were overexposed and burnt.. and a 1.5 sec picture where the loco body was underexposed..

Kunal, LV mark is not required for the banker on duty to any rake. The photo which you are refereeing to is of the bankers running light from LNL to KJT. Above photo is of the bankers pushing the rake from KJT to LNL. Harish Kulkarni.

I havent seen LV marking in any bankers till now(so it may not be compulsory), Infact I'm surprised to see in the pic. Thanks for the link.

Here is a snap of the the bankers at Bhore Ghat with the 'LV' board and red markers 'ON'. Whats the norm followed in other Ghat sections?
