Yes: this was the link between the North and South MG systems: the line between Khandwa and Hingoli was opened in 1960.

does that mean, we used to have MG line all the way from Jaipur to Hyderabad? i'll miss those old MG days...

Really neat... what fun would it have been to stand in the 'balcony' and watch the countryside go by. Alas, those were the days

WL 15005 from Firozpur shed hauled Udyan Abha Toofan Express as the last scheduled mainline broad gauge steam run on Indian railway. Then it entered the National Rail Museum in Delhi on its own steam (seen here). Dec '1995

Its no progress at all. ts disastrous and a rather hilarious piece of engineering. Look what they proposed www.dlm.ag .

Hello...wonderful slide...did you note that the WP here,has both standard and Boxpok type of driving wheels ?...WPs were mainly seen with Boxpok Wheels.

Wonderful close-up of the WG Class steam engine.Full slides are expected complete,with tender,attached behind the cab.

the epitaph of the dead age has been written, may the soul rest in peace forever so generations next can revel in a memory lost.

Fantastic picture - This is how the Mahatma travelled! Not to speak of the rest of the general population.
