sorry-that was a typo. it is indeed from vatva.

The ladder is used to reach the upper deck of the concrete structure. Another picture in the series shows the ladder leading to the top deck. The users of the Skytrain would not have to use this ladde.

Kyo Sandeep Bhai BPVC button daba hua hai isley driver seat par baith kar photo kicha rahe ho . Its a WAG-9 Samar

one more thing in the LHB train the Guard and the ac technical stuff very much remain connected to the train as the Luggage area is in the end which is not there in the normal train

Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for adding this picture! I've criss crossed the track so many times while riding in a taxi, I've even had this train cross my path once, but it was at a distance and it disappeared as quickly as it had appeared. First time since 1971 that I've actually managed to see what it looks like, thanks to you.

Great pic !
I have always wanted to see how 'it' looked. One of the most unique pics on the IRFCA.

With the boxy cab, if this loco were ever to go at 150 kmph, the drivers would go deaf at the end of the trip! C’mon dudes - 150 kmph is no joke, have you tried keeping your car windows open and driving on the freeway at 70 mph - 115 kmph? It is deafening! That is in a car with a lot of aerodynamic thought put into its design. The ugly ducking has zero aerodynamics elements in its design, and with all those strange protrusions on the window, the cab noise must be nasty. This is basically a freight locomotive with a makeshift cab arrangement and is not meant for fast running.

No way Sunny that that steep stairs are meant for passengers. Can you imagine any elderly person climbing that go get on the train!

They must have asked the getekeeper's kid to draw this signboard :-) Anyway, great work from the toddler.

Just awesome and so different
