Express hauled by EMD WDP4B #40005 of DLS Tughlakabad (TKD), NR.
While I was doorplatting onboard Rajdhani Express, when I saw the 15613 Kamakhya - Murkongselek Intercity Express waiting at Agthori station for the crossing, I had a nostalgic feeeling of the erstwhile MG (Metre Gauge) version of this train; the 15813 Kamakhya - Murkongselek ARUNACHAL EXPRESS; this train was discontinued due to gauge conversion from MG to BG (Broad Gauge).
The MG Arunachal Express used to run from Kamakhya Jn to Murkongselek, the timing is more or less the same, however now the BG train comparatively takes less time. It was hauled by MG ALCo locomotive YDM4 class of DLS Siliguri (SGUJ), NFR.
Now I have only the memories of those MG trains and nothing else.
