Very recently I was going through some old files on my computer and I came across this video I had taken long back (probably somewhere between 2008 and 2010 or something).

It is taken from a spot few meters towards the Mumbai side from Khandala station and that was the time when the Mumbai Pune section was still under DC current and the bankers were WCG-2 locomotives.  Watch the Pragati Express slowly climb up the ghat with a WCAM-3 locomotive in the front and 3 howling WCG-2 bankers.  That howling sound of the bankers was traditional and gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to it.

I was talking in the middle so for few seconds I have cut off the audio.

This is also my 800th video on YouTube.

Thank you to everyone for your support!
