Interesting...any idea as to why the old MG bridge was not upgraded to BG standard?

The other WDG-3A must be KYN 14595 if i am not mistaken.

@ one glance looked like a train with goods & passenger coupled rake. Great shot

Vivek, I agree with you. I wish they had converted these beauties to pure AC locos just like WCM6 is done.

The lines are where I am standing and taking the snap, i.e., bottom of the picture.

I do not have any memory of MG times, but someone told me that MG used to be at cabin level for small distance while the BG was same as now. It is very difficult to find any traces of old MG alignment anywhere till Barabanki. I have done extensive tracking and very much sure that except at Jugaur if true, in the rest of the section, BG was simply laid over the MG alignment. The same is true about LKO-CNB section where MG traces have been completely wiped out.

how is it that cabin is at lower level....is it from the MG times and later on there was track realignment???
