Very nice photo of the rear portion of the train. Your effort of climbing up the hill have really produced great result.

Yes, this is Kalyani station distant signal, seen here at green aspect.

That signal could be a Distant in which case it would assume the yellow aspect when the train passes the next signal which should be the Home.Distant signals do not have their own Track Circuits due to which they cannot be made to return to yellow automatically.Also it seems unlikely that in an electrified double line section,a non-track circuited semi-automatic signal would be provided.

Any reaction from the LP or ALP when they saw all this going on ?

Nice Picture!! Notice that only the loco is banking while the rake is yet to enter the curve.

6 hours late is quite good while running on a diverted route.Rajdhani has never arrived at BRC under 8 hours late while on a diverted route.

Nice to see a train on a S-curve.

Nice!:-)
I somehow love the concept of crossing than an overtake.
