How come a West Central Railway box present in SWR territory? Or does it mean any other thing.

To support this theory more, I have seen this particular loco hauling the LKO Shatabdi thrice.

Not clear what you mean by the question Appu, but visually this pantograph is webbed unlike the "low-speed" one. I would actually say that for high-speeds this is a bad design as it would increase the drag. The high speed trains have a single arm pantograph made using a tough material and is oval-shaped to make it aerodynamic.

Yes It was a surprise when Rakesh spotted 22697 with AJJ.Very average paint job on 22699 :( Guess they are giving a bottle of terpentine along with the loco !

Excellent catch. Though im not sure if it'll make it to GZB. Ashwanth told me that when they spotted 22697 with NR markings, it was sent to AJJ to be made into SR. But lets see when the shed markings are actually painted.

New P4 has two handles for the doors so pilot can open it standing on the ground. very useful.
