Can someone tell me if that coach in the background is the Mahalaxmi Express? or was it the Secunderabad Exp livery?

IR and its infatuation with deiselization!!! What was the need to deiselize Neral-Matheran line?

How was the visibility of the track ahead from the cab? I know, these loco never ran with cab trailing fashion. Any idea why this unique design was phased out?

I saw this type of locomotive reversing to join the passenger rake at NER's LJN back in 1993 and perhaps it was the last time I saw this locomotive in running condition. Also, I remember a passenger train hauled by WDM-1 that used to take Lko-Malhaur route and usually left Lucknow in the evening, around 6:15 pm or so during the late 1980s.
