Quiet Sunday morning

Being Sunday, it was all calm and quiet at Kathivakkam station and Santragachi AC Express rips through with ARAKKONAM WAP-4 in lead

Red in morning light

No visors

Seems ARAKKONAM WAP-4 powering SANGAMITRA Express has no visors and the engineer uses newspaper to avoid harsh summer sun

Curious look

Commuters at the door giving me a curious look as I take the shot of the new MEDHA 3-PHASE EMU which is replacing the old EMU

Saffron WAP-4

Usually RED in color but this ITARSI WAP-4 appears to have saffron livery which can be RED originally getting oxidized over time due to weather

Old freight loco

31 years of service, ARAKKONAM WAG-5HA moving light towards ENNORE, now mostly into shunting duty

Soon to be history

As more 3-phase EMU being inducted into service, old WAU-4 class EMU being decommissioned as they are less energy efficient
