	Nilanjan Same comments. Same question. Posted by Guest on 2003 Nov 12 23:28:11 +0000
	Nilanjan Ah, must add another interesting bit of info that I remembered. In those days, the tickets for Rajdhanis used to be printed in something akin to an airline ticket today - thin paper, cover jacket with instructions written on them et al. I remember vividly because I used to collect train tickets (the old small card tickets), and I used to be very disappointed when we travelled by Rajdhani because I did not get those card tickets!

	Nilanjan The HWH Raj via Gaya ran on double diesel (both carrying the same Rajdhani livery) even in 1986. I remember that the lead loco even carried a name plate bearing the train name. Posted by Guest on 2003 Nov 12 23:17:41 +0000
	Neil From this diagram, it does not make sense to have Manmad as the starting point for the Aurangabad line....Ankal Quila seems more logical. Anybody agree, or am I missing something? Posted by Guest on 2003 Nov 12 18:05:01 +0000
	Sandeep Now thats another clue that the loco was a brand new one: the seat's plastic has not been torn fully yet!. Posted by Guest on 2003 Nov 12 16:31:10 +0000
	Sunny I am very happy to see the humble WDS 4 in action. Basically it being a 700 HP this is where the starting point of Indian Locomotives Industry comes. Has no Electric Motors , direct transfer of power to the AXLE by VOITH HYDROLIC system. Posted by Guest on 2003 Nov 12 06:30:18 +0000
	Sridhar In some countries, this would be their entire fleet of locos :-) Posted by Guest on 2003 Nov 12 05:08:02 +0000
	Sridhar They're facing the other way... you never have signals facing outwards from the platform just within feet of the platform :-) Posted by Guest on 2003 Nov 12 05:05:25 +0000
	Sridhar 6 semaphores and one track? What am I missing? Posted by Guest on 2003 Nov 12 04:52:48 +0000
