Satish, Yes it is indeed Champion Reef station on the Bangarapet Jn to Marikuppam BG line. I should know better because I grew up in this area and also studied in a school close to this station. This area is part of the Kolar Gold Fields and this station is named after a large reef of Gold found near this station.

Great to see the pics of this unusual brake van.

I wish our loco workshops would do a better job with the finishing of the locos. You can clearly see the dents in the front portion of the loco. Overly painting the loco alone does not make a loco look good.

closely observing the pic. i can surely say that the electrification hasn't been completed as yet.

very difficult to make it out! the panto of the WAP-4 is up and if observe the pic carefully then u can noticea very thin vertical stream of smoke over the WDM-2 Jumbo. Observe It!!
