Yesterday railfan Arzan Kotval and I trekked to an amazing location between Sanjan and Bhilad stations of the Western Railway. There was vast open landscape. It was very hot but breezy too. One of our first captures was the Tiruchirapalli - Sriganganagar Humsafar Express with Vadodara WAP-4E (22604). This is the first capture of this train with a WAP-4 locomotive. The train was running bang on time. It did not do full speed, but it was at around 80-90 km/hr, enabling us to capture it nicely. The Humsafar Express is a new class of fully AC 3-tier trains that run between cities. These are brand new LHB coaches with comfortable interiors and colourful exteriors. It is sad that the one Rajdhani coach is kept in this rake, but still it was amazing capturing the rake in the afternoon sunlight. Date of video: 8th April, 2017
