A green and refreshing Kallar. The NMR passenger stops to get its teeth aligned to the ones on the track. Atleast this should have given us the hint 🙂
Deceptive Kallar
Spoilt By Nature
I envy the locals who live here. A wet and lazy saturday morning at a quaint little station with the misty Nilgiris in the background.
Ready To Roll
X Series 37391 freshly POH’ed and ready to be re-commissioned, waiting for someone to lay her down on the tracks
Careful WAPPIE
Says the doggy as it waits for the P7 to complete its shunting activities. It needs to cross the tracks to visit the museum
The P7 Badminton Saga
Now with the X Series out of the way, P7 starts it shunting activities to get the Coimbatore bound passenger onto the platform. The entire train cannot be shunted in one go as the yard is not big enough to handle such a large rake. So the P7 will get one half out of the yard, reverse and couple the rest of the rake and get the whole rake into the platform. It was interesting to watch the shunting LP’s getting trained on a P7
And The Fun Begins
Hooting and puffing and crawling out of Mettupalayam, The X Series loco pushes a train full of passengers, who have brought out their child within and cameras as they prepare for an exciting and delightful experience on the UNESCO heritage NMR (Nilgiri Mountain Railway)
Show Me The Way
An undercarriage Checking area for the Loco and the train as the line is now all clear for the morning trip to paradise
ICE & ICF
The German ICE hangs out with the Indian Railways ICF made coaches with a Lone LHB waiting to get Shunted. IRFCA 2016 Bikaner Convention
Swachh Palakkad
Spanking Clean Palakkad Junction from the FOB. Identifying a location free of RPF was an exciting prospect. A loaded BTPN waits on PF2 for its starter
The Setting Sun
Sikar bound MG Line Jaipur – Sikar Passenger waits on a cool winter evening. The sun descends the horizon and reminds the MG passenger of its last few days as an MG passenger. Seen here is 02089 Sikar bound passenger waiting for its counterpart 52084 bound to Jaipur at Chomun Samod
