Ujjawal, it is indeed a hardworking Jumbo as after bringing the 1021 to Pune, it was doing the duty of up and down Karjat Pune Passenger. This was spotted by Pritam Koli yesterday.

Many thanks Ashish for capturing it. Hat's off to this 2500hp monster for bringing it on time with a tough time table plus halts of Dadar, Thane, Kalyan and Karjat. I
was pretty sure that 1021 will reach on time since a day earlier 1022 passed Kurla 5 minutes late with additional brake testing halts of Khandala, Monkey Hill and Nagnath.

@Dr. Jitendra-The correct timings of these trains are,Indore IC leaves HBJ at 17:10,Bhopal express at 21:05 and timing for Rewanchal is correct i.e 22:00

The Indore Inter City leaves Habibganj at 17.30, Rewanchal (with loco already attached) at 21.00 and Bhopal Express (without loco attached) at 22.00. The ET WAM-4 appears to be dead at this particular hour.
