Of Gorakhpur", 12556 Dn Hisar - Gorakhpur Gorakhdham Superfast Express. This happens to be one of the ISO certified trains of IR (ISO 9001:2015) & imagine a single Alco at the helm of a 24 coacher superfast with CBC ICF rake.

The second unit of its class (first being 14144/ED), this loco was wrongly classified as a WDM 3A by Gonda (as seen in the picture) & was later re-classified as a WDM 3D after the addition of a microprocessor post transfer to Izzatnagar (IZN). WDM 3B locomotives had the same specifications (including bogies) as that of the WDM 3D class but lacked a microprocessor.

A blast from the past featuring Konkan Railway !

In frame: 16524 Karwar - KSR Bengaluru Express via Mysuru charges out of the abundant foliage right before crossing the mighty Aghanashini river powered by a prancing Alco from Erode (ED), WDM 3D # 11199. This train along with 16513/14 KAWR-SBC Exp via Kunigal was the forerunner of today's Panchaganga Express (16595/96) . In fact, IR cancelled 16523/24 via MYS permanently, increased the frequency of 16513/14 from tri-weekly to daily & renumbered the service as 16595/96. Soon, the name Panchaganga followed.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
