@Vijay: Thanks for the link and information.
@Rahul: You are mistaken regarding the term "flying crossing". What is shown here is not a flying crossing, a flying crossing is a term used for a junction where one track goes over the other using a bridge/tunnel thereby allowing simultaneous movement on both crossing tracks. Here is more information about it- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_junction

Dr Mulky, I think what Onkar wanted to know is whether this crossing is on the Nagpur line or Itarsi line. It is on the line towards Nagpur.

This diamond crossing is immediately after the Itarsi and Nagpur lines diverge. Here is the exact spot http://www.wikimapia.org/#lat=21.0468657&lon=75.8214676&z=17&l=0&m=s&v=9

Diamond crossings world over are of two types.
Level Crossings & Flying crossings.
Level ones have both rails at same level, with a medium speed restriction on both lines.
Flying ones have rails at different levels with no SR on one line and a very slow SR on other.
