Prayagraj and Mahakumbh.

1. Divya, Bhavya Kumbh decorations at the entrance of Prayagraj Junction.

2. ECR marked blue ICF Rake No. 27 of Kumbh special at PF-1.

3. 08426, Tundla-Bhubaneswar Kumbh special departing from PF-3 of PRYJ.

4. Prayagraj Junction bustling with Kumbh specials.

5. Rake No. 62 of Kumbh special parked between PF-8/9, lead by CNB WAG-9HC, 43139. It was trailed by a Pune WAG-9HC.

I forgot to remove the '62' I marked to remember the rake number.

6. 09421, Sabarmati-Banaras Kumbh special standing on PF-8. Two RPF/RPSF personnel were allotted per coach for every train to ensure easy boarding/deboarding.

7. 03689, Gaya-Prayagraj Kumbh special arriving on PF-5 lead by DDU WAG-7. As with most of the ECR specials, this rake was also uniform blue ICF.

8. DDU WAG-7, 27522 trailing the Kumbh special from Gaya.

9. Freshly painted CR livery coaches of the Rake No. 62 of Kumbh special.

10. NR's Kumbh special, Rake No. 33. It was hauled and trailed by LKO ALCos.

Apart from the wonderful management of Mahakumbh by the Government of Uttar Pradesh, smooth handling of humongous crowds by IR is truly commendable.

Kumud.

Agree
Most of the special trains of ECR use these blue ICF coaches. The CR liveried coaches were even freshly painted.

I guess these are spare coaches just lying around in the yards, that's why the original livery is still intact.

I was saying ki, NCR aur NR dono alag markings ke sath inn rakes ko operate kar rahe hain. WR ke rakes me to Valsad ke hi WAG-9s dikhe hain abhi tak.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
