Super MONSTER Gradients : INDIAN RAILWAYS Roller Coasters Trains
click here
.
Catch yet another unique compilation - Roller Coasting Trains over the Monster gradients , something which is not commonly found across all parts of the Indian Railways.
.
...
more...

These gradients are largely found in the Deccan plateau where the terrain is extremely rough and uneven. The South Western Railway Zone of Indian Railways stands top when it comes to these Monster Gradients how ever the average speed of Trains in the Zone takes a major dip due to the unavailability of flat straight lines.
.
The freight trains especially require High Horse Powered Locomotives to work efficiently in these terrains, most of the freight trains here are operated by EMD's either Single or Double depending on the load they need to carry for sufficient braking and to avoid Wheel slips, never the less ALCo's still do wonders.

Hope you enjoy watching this video.

Thanks, Harris, for posting the theme parks in and around SBC for fun viewing. It was so amazing to watch the centipedes, millipedes, cobras, and pythons in deadly action. As usual, Dodbelle and Soldevanahalli provided visual treats, but the highlight was definitely that unique-looking yellow DG4 boy with RajyaRani at Hejala, not to leave out the BYPL monster towards the end. Overall not-a-second-to-be-missed VDO.
