Great set of snaps,i guess the train on ur right is vivek exp and to ur left is island, the coaches look like that,esp the blue marking on GS Coach and font of AC 2 Tier may be NF Rake, i may be corrected though

This is a Beyer-Peacock built MG Garratt. This was in service during the second world was in Assam Bengal Railway(ABR).

Great idea and implementation. Good to see that the SM has decided to take this green initiative forward.

Yes - it sure is a Garrett. When and where were these used ?

Lovely coverage of the NE states which is less travelled by many of us. Great train ride from Dibrugarh to CAPE.
