I rode Delhi metro between Pulbangash and Welcome station. Pulbangash is an elevated station, so the lower level is for shops. Very nice and legible signboards! Pulbangash station, New Delhi, 2003-12-27. By Udit Patidar.
Security was very tight, so couldn't take pictures on board! But as soon as I got out at Welcome station, I took this photo of the main entrance. Nice small advertisements. Welcome station, New Delhi, 2003-12-27. By Udit Patidar.
View of Welcome station platform from parking. The stations resemble Docklands Light Railway in London. Very nicely built and maintained. The catenary seems to be the same! Welcome station, New Delhi, 2003-12-27. By Udit Patidar.
Here it comes at last. I had to take the picture under a bridge, since it had started raining then. The train was picking up speed … These trains seem to have a very thin pantograph. Why? Welcome station, New Delhi, 2003-12-27. By Udit Patidar.
