I noticed the similarity with the old pantos too but then look closely and you can see faintly 2 criss-crossing bars like in the web-like newer-style pantos, in addition to the straight one down the middle. These seem to be some sort of a hybrid variety that CLW seems to have come up with! Maybe my eyes are playing tricks again but look closely at 22715 courtesy Mamu, (http://www.irfca.org/gallery/Uploads/100_3088.jpg.html?g2_imageViewsIndex=1) and 22712 courtesy Jimmy, (http://www.irfca.org/gallery/Uploads/IMG_0023.jpg.html?g2_imageViewsIndex=1).

Great shot mamu. Brilliant observation Gautam. But these criss crossing bars dont look exactly like those high speed webbed ones do they?

Great Picture Mamaji.... but a day too late I would say, else would have straight-away got nominated for the current Spotlight Poll (Night Pictures theme) & would have even won the same hands-down" Dilip Udassi

is this a high speed panto itself??but still there is a lack of dual collector rods..hmm..confusing..as said by Gautam..seems like a hybrid pantograph.
