19301 Dr. Ambedkar Nagar - Yesvantpur Weekly Express arriving at NED, my train was hauled by RTM WDM-3A.
The route least explored by rail fans, this train earlier used to depart from Indore Junction, now starts from Dr Ambedkar Nagar (Mhow), and goes via Ujjain - Bhopal - Itarsi - Amla - Narkher - Navi Amravati - Badnera - Akola - Hingoli - Purna - Nanded - Kacheguda - Gooty - Yesvantpur.
This...
more... was the one and only diesel loco hauled train in Bhopal - Itarsi - Amla section (Grand Trunk route)...sadly this is also history today!!
The line from Narkher - Navi Amravati - Akola is electrified now making the entire Indore Akola stretch under wires, hence this train gets E-loco from Mhow to Akola...thereafter D-Loco to Yesvantpur.
Full video compilation will be published shortly.
