Apurva (iti@vsnl.com)DETC = Diesel Electric Tower Car. This is a diesel hauled OHE maintenance vehicle with electric transmission. The 'Tower' is the hydraulically actuated platform on the roof that can be raised, lowered or even swung on the adjescent track. There is a dummy pantograph for alignment purpose. There is an all weather 'cockpit' on the roof through which the ride of the dummy panto can be viewed at speed. Posted by Guest on 2004 Feb 19 04:55:01 +0000 |

Great work, Guys!! This refutes the widely believed notion that this route & all the associated structures (such as tunnels) were built by the Brits. But, at the same time, shame on IR was neglecting such historical plaques - hope someone higher up at Bombay CST will take notice of this.
