Great
What was the last time that you travelled in a train that was hauled by a Diesel Engine in this electric era, mine was 22433 Suhaildev SF Express, once the fastest diesel train in India.

What about steam journey?
As a kid I remember lot of steam engine travel from nrw to kkde.

We used to set opposite direction to engine to avoid small coal particles going into eyes.

Very recently, in fact when going from Lucknow-Guwahati. My train took the loop line instead of the direct one to Kamakhya/Guwahati. It went via Goalpara Town due to which it had to undergo a loco change at Bongaigaon.

Otherwise, in the past, when LKO-PBH-BSB section was not electrified, I remember the Neelanchal express undergoing loco change at both LKO and MGS due to the diesel loco requirement in the middle.
