Seems to be one by MLW. Am I right, John?

Thanks a lot for the series

Varanasi-Dehradun Exp used to have WP way back in 80s. Hope if that's the one.

Yes, you are quite right. Late afternoon-the light did keep changing though. The train is northbound.

The thing on right should have been at the back of left one or at the other end of the shed.

Looks like an early morning (or late evening) shot. They usually turn out to be the best because of the bright lighting. Plus I suppose John to the pains to walk up a hill of some sort to take this photo. I suppose such efforts usually pay off very well.

The sign on the left says, "Jabalpur Steam Loco Shed welcomes you" and the one on the right says "Thank You"

Many thanks for the compliments!
The camera was a 1980 Pentax ME Super with a 80-200 Takumar zoom lens; film Kodachrome 64.
Bizzy, yes this is the location I described as being about 5 kms south of Khallikot: I walked down the tracks. The road is away from the railway here.
Rohit, I took the exposure reading off the tracks as was my usual practice in such situations.

Sir John , please can you tell us on how you chose exposure for this shot. The train is not dark and nor is the sky burnt out!!

ahhhhhhhhh.....sir John, you are a true magician when it comes to composition and shot location!!!
hat's off to you!!
