Hey - Where all have you been last month - Ankit. To be able to catch this very rare "Winking Eye" monster ?? Just lovely.

Is the LP only clad in a vest?

Rare catch, but looks lovely

On a funny note, the loco can be called as 'Otrai Kan Sivarasan" in Tamil (in english - single eyed Sivarasan). Are the locos straightway coming from war base? Long live Jumbos.

Amazing capture with three rare sightings
the Rake, the Loco and the LP in traditional uniform :)

Wow, amazing. Must be the rarest of modifications. And the LP looks stunning :-) Seems to be enjoying his ride

For a short time, Pune too had a Jumbo with regular windscreen glasses patched onto steel sheets - on both sides! Looked hideous, I suppose the shed located the relevant spares and got the power back to the original look.

Such a rare catch - two Jumbos, with exotic liveries, including one with the patched windscreen. Amazing.
