Look which panto is up! Even that is a giveaway that the loco is PUSHING the train rather then PULLING it. After all, it's not winter yet in MAS requiring the locos to run on front pantos.

Yes, the seats in BG AC Chair, FC MG Chair ( as on Pink City) were alike using 2+ 3 on BG, 2+2 on MG; but then there were differences!
The Taj and Brindavan FC had 2+2 chairs which were wider and these were used as 2+1 on the Udaipur section of the train on MG.

These latter were very comfortable!

I thought the Fairy Queen seats did not align well with the windows when I travelled in 2000.

lovely capture :)
The train is pushed to RU.From RU this WAM4 will pull the train to TPTY.(hence bound to TPTY).Seen in the cabin are Gaurd(lucky fellow,L) and Assistant pilot(to monitor loco,R).

Pawan, probably your other fellows would join you for RF :)

Wonderful, a FC stuff.

Flip it vertically on right.
I see, a KULFI (Candy) with those 'right curved rakes' as STICK and whole 'remaining stuff' as upper MILKY-CANDY with WCAG1 as base :)

@vivek,
The caption says its tirupati bound! thereby its being pulled!,
In the distance one can see the curve and gradient(after exiting BBQ) just before Vyasarpadi jiva.
This service has just left MAS.
Or i maybe wrong since there is a "proceed" upfront. and harish is taken it from the Rear end.
