Diesel Engine

A Diesel Engine waiting to pull the train to its destination - Mangalore (South India) -from Kurla station in Mumbai. This train will travel along the picturesque Konkan coast.

Please excuse my absence of visits as am away for a couple of days of Rest and Recreation :)
No, I am not travelling in the train pictured above.
Cheers! Happy Holidays to everyone!!

  12. This diesel looks all business! One day I'm going to take an extended rail trip just for the photos I can get from the train that I could get otherwise. But it'll have to be when I don't have a schedule to keep because rail travel around here is sadly slow and unreliable.
