This is the morden spring system. Not the old style leaf spring system.

Lamps ! Here the rules have been followed to the book. It is a LV & the Electric Lamp is also distinct. Because it is fitted permanantly in the body of the Coach.

One can see 12 Windows. I presume 36 passengers can comfortably be seated. Of
cource there is no restriction as to standing passengers. Therefore in a peak
period I presume one coach can carry 50 Passengers ? ( Six Coaches 300 passengers.)

Beautiful rake, but when oh when will IR actually *run* this rake in regular passenger service?
At this rate it will go from Safdarjung straight to the National Rail Musuem.

Adding to my previous comment, Bokaro shatabdi comes headed with a bandamunda(BNDM)WDM2 and switches to electric traction at Bokaro with a WAPx loco from Howrah or Gomoh and rarely Kanpur.

Bokaro Shatabdi now starts from Hatia(near Ranchi). The train will now avail the new WAP7(s) from the neighbouring Gomoh Shed. Gomoh is the next station after Bokaro.
