now only CST-KYN main line section is in DC. I hope IR/CR can arrange for a last run of such 'DC only' trains/locos.

Thanks Harsh for this pic.. Look at the wheel arrangements 2-AAA-1 which is not found nowadays. And lest everybody knows, there is still confusion regarding THIS loco being the original 'Sir Roger Lumley'

Note the Indian Railways' own Door-to-door Container Service 4 wheeler wagon, a precursor to the modern ISO standard shipping container wagons. Comment by Alexander Jojo.

@Chitrath. I believe the flasher lamp was introduced after the terrible accident at Gaisal involving the Brahmaputra Mail and Assam Awadh express. I stand to be corrected for the details I submitted.

No flash lamp on the loco???
