The height of the platform looks somewhat low. Is it not?

Interesting perspective - I guess Ragu must have been standing some 10 m away from the loco, and none of the driver view ports are visible. Talk about "blind spot". Like they have in the trucks - if you cannot see my mirrors, I cannot see you.

The purpose of this pic was to show that the shape of the hills do not change for a long time. I would be uploading pics of the land near the reversing station - one has to strain to see similarity between the older pics and the current hills due to severe weathering/erosion. The above location and the reversing station are just 1.5 Kms apart, so the weathering at the reversing station is man made.

Great comparison, Apurva....in fact the tiny speck on top of the hill is actually a tree that still stands proudly today.
