Twin GY WDG-3A #14999 and #14554(Baldie) enter Karjat down yard with ACC cement rake in tow. Right behind me, the G7 triplet is waiting for this rake to clear the line, so it can head to the banker siding. (Photo by Dhawal) (Aamod)

Within a day, such a huge transformation at Karjat!! AC Bankers line up for next assignments as DQ is all set to climb the Bhor ghats under AC traction, this being the 1st train to do so. (Photo by Dhawal, caption by Vijay) (Aamod)

Yes Ashish, I agree. Due credit also goes to Jayant, as he carefully captured Pre and Post moments very nices - Banking of ICE by WCG2 and DQ by WAG7.

I feel, credit should ALSO go to Jayant, who took pictures to catch early action.
