Remarks & Notes

A triplet WAG7 Brakers rolls down the Bhore ghats with a loaded BCNA (cement) wagaons hauled by WDG4 locomotive. These locomotives act as bankers while train climbs up the ghats for better traction and they act like brakers for more effective braking power when such a high tonnage freight trains rolls down the ghats.
