7789 was amongst a batch of 8 prototype locomotives built by Vulcan Foundry in 1955. Four went to Northern railway and were based at Firozpur and the other four went to Southern railway and were based at Shoranur. Thanks for appreciating! Posted by Harsh Vardhan on 2010 Apr 08 05:40:28 +0000 |

Beauty...I think the loco maintenance standards used to be lot better back in olden days. I still have vivid memories of immaculate WPs with boxpok wheels & WGs at Kolhapur when steam was only used between Kolhapur & Miraj. My favorites WG (10097?)with Giesel Injector and 8076WG on Mahalaxmi express. Posted by Satish Gune on 2010 Apr 08 05:24:55 +0000 |

Me and Shantanu spotted this loco with this BCNA load at the siding lines between Mulund and Bhandup the same morning. Now i guess it must be heading north of BSR. Posted by Bhushan Kale on 2010 Apr 08 04:10:04 +0000 |

How did you reach there, Old Man? The Ganaka Motel side of this area is easily accessible but the opposite side seemed difficult to reach when I spent a day there railfanning. Posted by Karan Desai on 2010 Apr 08 03:35:40 +0000 |

This is quite a panorama! Looks like you shot this panorama from across the valley from the resort where many photos where shot by Sachin and others. Posted by Jay Balakrishna on 2010 Apr 08 02:20:44 +0000 |
looks like GZB is an "Equal Opportunities Shed" and all locos irresepctive of class and livery get equal share of muck. would have been nice had one of those white [:-)] loco been there as well.
