Hi,

No, this was taken standing as I prepared to get out... ;-)
The backpack to the left was my main luggage for the trip.

Cheers,
Roni

Yes, brilliant snap!
And the KK did have a beautiful livery back then...I remember seeing this livery as late as 1986-87. I'd been to SBC to receive my aunt, who returned from Dharamshala. It was an evening arrival. Then, the KK fell off a bridge over the 'Kabana nallah' somewhere in the Chambal ghats...after that, the livery changed to the Rajdhani-like red-cream-red one. Then, in the early 90s, the KK and many other SFEs across IR took on a cream-maroon livery. After that came the present one...
