The curved rails were ...'curved'. There is no compression due to the zoom lens. No idea what they were meant for

Very nice set of photos. Great to see an ERS diesel deep in Gujarat

Good Pic, Abhijit, I am quite sure that, the blotches on the top right are dust on the sensor. It may be a good idea to find a way of removing it.

Nice photo Abhijit! Bizzy, the rails probably are not that curved but because of the telephoto of about 100mm used, they are compressed. The rails are to replace the old rails.

I don´t know if it is a 1st class coach because I travelled in the last one and that was definitely a 3rd class coach. Anyone else know

A "neat" view, thanks to the wireless territory! Why are there so many of those curved rails in the foreground? - Makes for an interesting view nevertheless~!

Thanks Apurva, it was my pleasure. Right, I failed to notice the unusual positioning of the horns. The wagons are BOBRN class hopper wagons, which are very common here.
