I asked that because once it used to have 3 EOGs. I think the that practice is now extict.

A lovely set of images from this hitherto not well-documented region around NJP. Great efforts and many thanks for sharing these.

@ Ankit - The rake had 2 EOG. The rake formation of 2424 from Ghy to DBRT was Loco, EOG, 2A, 3A, 3A, 3A. WDM-2 xxx from New Guwahati Shed took charge of the little rake to DBRT. 2424 eventually will have 3 loco changes and 1 reversal.

@ Kharad. You are right. WDS-6 36080 of Siliguri was on duty with a frieght.

Do we see a WDMx in the distant?? towards the centre-right of the image!!

The optical illusion is due to the fact that it is sandwiched between the high roof of the AC 3T coach and the Long Hood of the WDP-4

The sun on the FOB gives a totally different dimension to this picture! Superb!
