7 minutes earlier, the LTT - Chhapra Godan Express had crawled past Umbermali.  

I then got ready to capture the 12542 LTT - Gorakhpur Sant Kabir Dham Superfast Express which consists of LHB hybrid coaches.
But it approached Umbermali quite slowly, showing gentle acceleration towards the end.
The loco was Ajni WAP-7 (30296).

I took this video standing on the side of the National Highway 3 and got a beautiful wide-angle view of the superfast train.  This place can be reached by getting off at Umbermali and walking 10 minutes.
