This most probably would be the 376 DN passenger between Delhi and Shahjehanpur. I joined as Assistant Engineer Bareilly on 21.12.1993 and this was the only train running on steam engine then. I have some very fond memories of footplating on steam engine on 376/375. Unfortunately, it got dieselised in my tenure itself, in 1994-95.

the loco shed is Laksar(now non-existent), used to have WGs and CWDs.

WP and WG generated wonderful rhythm when running. Ride was good (by steam standards) and certainly superior to AWD or H class locos.

Thanks a million for sharing these images.

even before looking at "1984" in the remarks, I could tell that these photos are of pre-Scindhia era!! The station has undergone sea change now.
