Unbelievable spotting!! KGP WDM-3A with N.R. Rajdhani's decommissioned rake skips SER's Abada!!!
.

Watch out for the rarest capture done by me till date!! While I, and my fellow railfans Dipyaman Basu, Somjit Sanyal and Chandril Bhowmick (Gourav Bhattacharya joined us later) were going on a railfanning trip on SER's Howrah- Kharagpur stretch, we were left stunned to see a full rake

of ICF RAJDHANI Express standing on the loop line of a wayside station Bauria. The rake was of NR, and the base depot was of Delhi. The rake was without any loco, and was sleeping silently. And after doing some railfanning, we decided to call it a day, and took an EMU to return. But as we crossed Bauria, we saw that the rake was still standing on the loop, and had a KGP WDM- 3A in lead. Our excitement knew no bounds, as we knew that the rake would be shifted to either the coaching yard of ER Sealdah (via the ER- SER Additional Chord Connector), ER Howrah, SER Santragachi or SER Padmapukur. We deboarded at Abada, and waited for the train to cross the station. And finally after much anticipation, there it was!!
Hauled by a KGP (Kharagpur) WDM- 3A, the ICF RAJDHANI Express rake, that belonged to 12425/ 12426 New Delhi (NDLS)- Jammu Tawi (JAT) RAJDHANI Express, skips Abada station through the down main line with some smoking and chugging at a belated proceed signal. At most probable, the rake would be used either for some A.C. Special Express, or the 22807/ 22808 Shalimar (SHM)- Chennai Central (MAS) Bi- Weekly A.C. Express.
