Truly Platinum!
Notice the entire stretch of Wooden sleepers too!
Though i am not familiar with the Mumbai-Pune region, It gives me joy to see the Wooden sleepers, Vacuum braked rake and the massive Loco!

Typically Mumbai ambience in the picture with the WCM 2 on lead.

Wow!!! Great. I remember this livery as i have traveled on the Deccan express used to be hauled by these locos. How long did this livery last?

Aseem, that's not entirely true ;-)

This is the class of loco which had hauled my Deccan express from Pune to Kalyan way back in 1993(I had uploaded scanned images of that earlier).Nostalgic feeling...This resembles more like WDM1.

Britishers built the bridge when with MG tracks, later in around late 70s, the bridge got converted to BG. At this particular place actually before the bridge, I have heard that you can find traces of MG at some places as the alignment was slightly different. Apart from this there are some traces of MG near Basti.
