Agreed Shanx that this was a trial run but is there a difference of Train working rules on regular runs & trial runs?? I'm not aware of any such rule, so can you please provide a link for the same.

So this school bus livery will continue for all double deckers? It could have been better.

Kharad, this was a trial run right?

I think the IR Train Working Rules prevent the loco from being left unattended while on active service with a rake. It should be manned by atleast one of the crew!!!

So what was the bursting noise were you able to find out on that part?

This is the radiator end !
Should see how heat levels are tolerated. Poor paint job as weather has taken its toll hardly months after commissioning.
Looks like the cab(smaller)is just taken and stuck at this end. Notice the Misalignment at the Footplate of this loco cab!
