WOWWWWW/..... Finally, we got to see that - for which we were dreaming and waiting for years together. Lovely and Fantastic capture Vivek, and thet best part is to capture this on Day1 of its entry and immediately make it available on this album. Now I feel, our album on AC conversion is complete with this capture... Good job

Totally awestruck and speechless with the King's crown being complete! And what better than Asean Brown Boveri to haul it in it's maiden run into Mumbai. Wish I was there to witness this :(

unbelievable ! fantastic moment...

FIRANGI becomes the first pure AC loco to enter mumbai...!!

Posted by Swapnil David on 2012 Feb 08 11:22:11 +0000

And even though 30000 is there, 30001 seems a much better choice for hauling the King on its maiden voyage with an AC loco.

The man in the blue shirt is actually holding a newspaper in front of his face to protect himself from the wind and the dust. Must have never seen this loco before, and poor fellow, he missed seeing it on its maiden run into Mumbai.

Posted by Dr.Jitendra Mulky on 2012 Feb 08 12:40:57 +0000

Why is it called FIRANGI?

Posted by Dr.Jitendra Mulky on 2012 Feb 08 12:55:27 +0000

congrats Mumbai for this historic change..and great pic Vivek..
