Railfan Arzan Kotval and I had just finished a 3 hour session of train spotting at a vast open landscape between Sanjan and Bhilad stations on the Western Railway. And we were walking away from the tracks back towards the road to walk to Sanjan station. I heard the horn of the train. While turning around, I removed my camera just in time to capture this beautiful looking Amul WAP-5 from Vadodara (30045) with the Dadar - Bhuj Sayaji Nagri Express. I panned the locomotive for nearly 20 seconds which means it covered a distance of around 500 meters going at a speed of 110 km/hr. When I zoomed out after the engine, you can see how far we really were from the train. That is what gave me this ultra wide angle to pan with the WAP-5. The Sayaji Nagari Express has recently been shifted from Bandra Terminus to Dadar on 2nd April, 2017. Slowly they may shift more trains to originate from and terminate at Dadar.
