02113 CST KRMI Shatabdi....

Besides it was a long time since I viewed the progress of this station....

True... Trains, Trains and Trains are the only senses for a Railfan....

Yes... neither an EOG nor a SLR... I pity the 1A pax who despite of paying more have been put just behind loco....

As I learnt earlier, Hy. LHB coaches are self generating and do not require EOG.

Yes...
