Kunal, you are right. The loco has mirrors only on one side. I thonk almost all locos are busy. We saw 21877 2 times, 21836 passed Saphale 3 times in the day, once with the passenger which we took in the morning.

I would like to add: Nice photo in spite of a hostile "pointsman uncle" :D

As the train was accelerating, we could hear the TMs of the loco in action. I loved the sound.

Some were VB rakes around that time but many trains still had the VB livery and were AB.

The loco is banking,not leading, hence it is moving toward the picture and the rear panto is raised.

It is the Paschim Express. The banker has come in after the length of this train was increased. Maybe they don't want to take any chances even though it is CBC.

Also to spot a VB rake is quite a rare occurance nowadays!
