The Tirumala Express was led by an LGD WAP4 into TPTY PF 4 before the dawn of 2nd Feb 2014.
Not able to walk the length of the train, I asked the guard on which loco was leading the train.
Conversation:
He: Who are you ?
I:
...
more...
Passenger
He: Why do you need that info ?
I: Interest
He: Its nothing to do with passenger's interest
I: Ok sir.. If you don't want to tell, don't tell.. I don't mind. I will check it out.
He: What do you do ?
I: (I know that he will not understand my profession, so I replied,) Software Engineer. (So simple.)
He: Its Lallaguda
I: Thank you.
He: where are you going?
I: Kadapa (I wasn't going anywhere. I came to the station to do some Early morning RF as I couldn't sleep. Later i wanted to receive my mom who was arriving by overnight GTL passenger)
He: Which train ?
I: Intercity. (Neither was I boarding this train. Some GN passenger asked me if the train on PF 5 was going to Kadapa earlier, To whom I replied Yes. So I without hesitation used that name here.)
He: Is that a passenger ?
I: Yes. TPTY-UBL Intercity Passenger
But I somehow walked the length to capture the pic of the Loco and train boards... And here are they...
Pic 1: TB on the Rear SLR
Pic 2: Loco - LGD Wap4
Pic 3: TB on the Front SLR. (Taken after the sunrise, a good 1.5 hours later).
