Nice detail captured on this scenic landscape. Excellent series of pics, Vikas. One thing is bugging me though...where the heck is this KK line?

Seems like a unending chain of wagons!! Any idea, how long was this chain? - Sandeep Bhate.

Neil - as I've explained in my reply to an earlier query, the KK line refers to the 445 km long Kottavalsa-Kirandul iron ore carrying BG electrified single line running through the states or Andhra Pradesh & Orissa.
Sandeep - the standard length of trains on this line is 3 locos + 56 BOXN wagons + guard van. The length of the train is close to 900 mtrs.
