it was more of a plastic (the flimsy type) sheet...but all i got was a glimpse thru the viefinder...the train was moving too fast, and i was still very sleepy when i took this . We had just started out for jalandhar, and my dad woke me up when he saw that the crossing was closed...and well, it just isn't like me to miss a train pictography chance:-)

Sachin...This is the Bhatinda-patiala line.....exact locatiion is "21 no. phatak" patiala.
nope, this ain't sepia mode....it's actually an "old Photography" filter ... you might find it in photoshop, i'm not sure...

The loco was earlier with KZJ, but at the time of accident it was with MLY. If u observe, the MLY logo is never painted on the hood, but a plate with the insignia is attached. This must have gotten ripped off due to the impact. Hence the MLY logo seems to be missing from the accident scene.
