Bhopal Shatabdi: chalti hai ek dum hawa ke mafik, speed aisi ke ruka de traffic - Varun

The Nanded Series - Part 1 is almost over... This is the second last train I saw during this trip, and it was on my list of 'ALCo hauled trains'. It's the 11402 Adilabad-Mumbai CSMT Nandigram Express, which used to run between CSMT-NGP under CR zone. Eventually, it got short terminated at Adilabad due to Covid-19. The train leaves Adilabad at 1:00 pm and arrives at CSMT around 5:30 am. It was powered by MLY ALCo twins from ABD to MMR, then switched to electric traction at MMR. Initially, it was usually WCAM series locos, but due to a shortage, it now runs entirely on diesel, with Kalyan DLS HHP engines taking over. It now starts/ends at Balharshah instead of Adilabad. Scheduled to roll on 28th Jan '23 from Nanded.
