What a romantic scene. Steam bankers! What is the present status of Train no. 50?

I am sure this is either Madras Mail or Island Express. During those days, these trains got a WP. I fondly remember watching these trains chug past through the level cross at Pullepady, sitting on my dad's lap

Technically speaking this locomotive is a WGx and not a WG. The 'x' letter was used to signify WGs that were fitted with "transition couplers". These could haul rakes fitted with either CBC or hook and screw coupling.

Funny looking locomotive. First I thought that the locomotive go detached from its coal and water tender, then carefully looking at the pic, I realized it was one complete unit, still it looks somewhat as if truncated.

Isn't it 2-8-4? This is out of my ignorance, please.

My favourite picture! The expression on the faces of the two firemen says it all.

Mind blowing!!
Things have changed so much, these days we sometimes feel afraid that the LP/ALP may complain about us taking photographs!
