Banked turn

PONMALAI WDG-3A on a banked turn as it enters Thiruvananthapuram city with Kanyakumari bound passenger train, running late by an hour

Climbing a gradient

For the freight class ALCo it must have been nothing with the small load of passenger train to climb that small gradient

Contrasting colors

Colors of ERNAKULAM WDG-3A makes quite a contrast with clear blue sky and verdure as it powers Kanyakumari bound passenger train

Fresh colors

Vanishing ALCos

As diesel traction gives way to electric traction around my area, this train is one of the two trains that still runs on ALCo power

Bright colors

Early morning light glows up a freshly painted ERNAKULAM WDG-3A crossing Paravur lake with Kanyakumari bound passenger train

Smoking ALCo

Beautiful ALCo

Bright colored ALCo

Short hood of ALCo

I prefer to see ALCo in short hood forward mode and if it has Dynamic Brake Resistor and Auxillary Power Unit, beauty increases

Enjoying door ride

Few passengers who are enjoying door ride, giving me a curious look as ERNAKULAM WDG-3A rips through with morning passenger train
