NZ on up harbour.
If my memory serves me right, location of the NZ is right next to the famous Parle G factory in VLP, between Andheri and Vile Parle...

Diesel's Day Out !
How i wish the 2951 was hauled with Twin Ratlams for just one day till BVI, if not BRc :-)
Kudos to you Bombay rail nuts! You guys should've actually taken a contract with WR for the coverage! You've actually taken pain to document most of it. :-)

A Small stretch was converted into 25000v AC and What all we got to see:
1. WDP4,
2. WCAM1/WCAM2 dead with WDGx locos,
3. Combo of live WDP3 with dead WCAM1.
4. A Complete Dead MRVC EMU at Borivali
5. King with WCAM2 under NZ and AC panto raising
6. Motorwoman piloting MRVC EMU under NZ
7. Individual line testing on all 7 lines.
8. Diesels with DD coaches.
8. And finally action post AC conversion on all 7 lines

Kudos to you guys for covering each & every action minutely. Really this album was very very refreshing. Very Good Job.... And CR MRVC rake 1038 which looked similar to an old uncleaned Ghaziabad Loco, was just recently POHed. The less said about cleanliness on CR rakes, the better.

When the rake of the Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai Sinhagad Express was transferred to the Pune-Daund-Pune shuttle, it too was hauled by a Diesel!!!
