There are four rail motor cars still on the KSR, now numbered 1-4 but originally numbered 8-11. They were built in the late 1920s, and they are similar but not identical. #4 is the biggest I think with 18 seats. I think they all still work, certainly 1,2 and 4 run.

Thanks Ranganath for your kind words! This is one of my favourites. If you would like to use any of my photos in the showcase, I could do a higher-quality scan but the file size would be a bit bigger.

Thanks! This photo is taken about 5km below Sonada, so about half way between Tung and Sonada.

Thats a very sharp curve. Any idea of the measurements ?. Also, what is the speed restriction there ?

Well...rather back-dated looking COntrol Console for a highly updated locomotive...Our WAG 9,WAP 5 and WAP 7 electrics have slimline dashboards...

Lovely slide...I wish a WAG 6C slide be there complete with exposure of its Co-Co bogies

I see this WDG 4 with a Bufferless Bufferbeam,as featured in the original GM-EMD Design..and a similar slide is there in my Siemens Catalogue...Siemens partnered GM-EMD for these loco.

Well,as far as these Hitachi built electrics are concerned,they came to India without buffers,and for sometime on the SER's KK Line,worked that way...You would be amazed to see that some WAG 5s ran on this route without side buffers and they looked curious.

Well, that's a nice shot of the Godavari and the bridge against the back drop of the setting sun. Nice work, Mr. Saifullah
