Single loco for a SF, that too 23 coacher is surprising. Normally trains get twin locos in that section to negotiate steep gradients after Rayagada towards Titlagarh

Jitendra, similar thing can be noticed in Vizianagaram station of AP. The board there mentions the names in Oriya too. Due to high movmement of the people in these two states along this line, the names in multilingual scripts can be seen.

Sambalpur Jn. (SBP) is the main junction. Just after this, going towards Jharsuguda (JSG) side is Sambalpur Road (SBPD), which is a Flag Halt. From here, the line diverges, one going to JSG and the other to Angul. On the Angul line is Sambalpur City (SBPY) station. However, since trains coming from JSG towards Angul would have to go to SBP, and then reverse, a bypass line has been created which allows trains line Dhanbad - BBS Garib Rath, Valsad - Puri Express, Rourkela - BBS Inter City and the Rajya Rani Express to go towards Angul without a reversal at SBP.

Is the Sambalpur Jn Station a more prominent station than the Road ?
