It was painted in 2003-04 using high quality anti fungal washable paint. It turned out to be a costly arrair but the results were so impressive that Asian Paints approached us for permission to use the picture on their annual calendar! NDLS from Paharganj side has been done up recently too. BTW, that wheel on top is the Chakra on top of the temple dome, depicting the Sun.

Sorry for the typo. This is the TAJ Express from Jhansi to Hazarat Nizamuddin.

This is the TAJ Express from Hazrat Jhansi to Nizamuddin. Its not in its usual rake which has the same livery as the deccan queen.

Please provide a caption. Can someone (Saifji, are you there?) provide a translation of what is written on the banner?

The special rake was a 2007 make 18 coach CBC rake comprising only second class coaches and 2 SLRs. It was marked SCR. So, in all probability, Satavahana or Telangana express might go CBC soon!
