RailFans don't miss their train. Why? Because they go to the station HOURS before the actual departure of their Train - to watch OTHER trains depart. - Prince Maan

A quick report of my weekly short trip between BNC and MAS.
As usual reached BNC by 10.20 pm and 12692 from SSPN was chugging into PF1 of BNC with his regular WDG-3A.. running almost on time.. I walked towards my regular Nandini Milk stall to get a cup of filter coffee and rail neer. I must confess and be happy to say that i survive on rail neer these days and my collegues do appreciate my dedication towards IR. By then Kongu's arrival was announced and the train reached PF1 20 mins ahead of schedule. As i walked on PF2.. i stared at the Raj LHB rakes lying aside with one happiness that they have been now Marked SWR. Well usage
...
more...
of the rakes..... not worth talking anymore.. I was just noting the coach comp and coach numbers.
1A: 10011
2A: 10080,84,81,82,83
PC: 10809
3A: 10942,36,41,37,35,39,39,38.
11013 LTT-CBE came in with a tired sounding (the horn is meant) ED WDM-3D and from last week i noticed that the 3A coaches have now been re-marked in order. Now the sad part is the mis-use of the WAP-7's by SWR.. BWT-SBC express was coming into PF1 as i was moving towards to Coach No 6 on PF2 and this one was hauled by the mighty P-7. I dont understand for what reason they give such loco's for such a train.. that too for a short journey.. phew....
Around 11.05 12658 was gushing into PF2 along with the white beauty LGD WAP-7 30307.. this is the second time i spotted this with the same P-7. i must agree that it was spotlessly neat and white... the run was fantabulous and reaches MAS as usual 20 mins early at 4.20 AM. Took E18 from central to guindy race course and took a share auto to reach home.. Well going now for a quick Nap before heading to office..

Are all coaches of the LHB rake marked as SWR or only two?
