Thanks for all these great pics Vikas. This one specially has a too good combination of everything. Did you count the number of wagons? How many locos were in charge? KK line should be given more powerful locos - Sandeep Bhate.

The usual composition of trains is 3 locos (or 2 in the case of WAG6's) + 56 BOXN wagons + guard van. You will be suprised to know that there is a shortage of walkie talkie sets on the KK line and our train for instance didnt have one! Its all down to the good old days of whistle and flag communication!
