It is indeed sad to see tokens on their way out. It is no doubt a great moment to see a token being exchanged at high speeds. I can very well recollect / vizualize a driver on the Pune KOP route ( now retired) who used to open up and gain speed as a token exchange was about to take place just to the the rail fans their thrills.

the body shell is that of new design Shakti locos, which in turn, resembles the WDM-3D. And this's an industrial loco hence doesn't belong to any shed as such.

Looks like a Gajraj to me =P. Ranjeet it's been mentioned in the caption that this belongs to NALCO!

The entire structure above the buffer resembles that of a MG diesel loco! Does it belong to any shed?

This would have been a great photo had it not been for the distracting catenary. Spoils the show :-(
