Probably a rare offlink for Basava Express !!! Today a WAG-9H from ECR zone Dhanbad Division's Patratu (PTRU) loco shed... took over the honours of hauling Mysuru (MYS) -- Bagalkot (BGK) Basava Express [ Train No: 17307 ]. It was on Platform-6 of Mysuru Junction (MYS), getting ready for the departure. Normally a WAP-7 from KJM/ ED/ LGD/ RPM or a WAP-4 from AJJ would be the link. This time it was a rare offlink !!!
