YG 4252 was a star performer, here it is between Morbi and
Dahinsara pumping furiously. Easily one of the most magical train
rides I have ever had. |
|
One of my favourite pictures from Bharat's
WKR webpage is the water rake going through a green patch. I
try to duplicate the scenario. This is a level crossing gate hidden
in the shrubs and the loco is also screeching its whistle at this
moment. |
 |
A carelessly driven truck crashed into a level crossing gate
last night. This has rendered the interlock between the gate and
the signal inoperative. Thus the 412 Down performs a 'stop dead and
proceed' procedure guided by the flag wielding pointman, only just
visible in the distance. The road between Morbi and Dahinsara runs
next to the railway line. |

The rake climbing an moderate incline towards Maliya Miyana.
The speed is very slow and the air is very still, the steam almost
flows near the ground. |
|
Few seconds later, the thick steam still flows on the
ground. |

View from the other door. The bleak landscape typical of the
area. |
