22214 Patna - Shalimar Duronto Express, powered by #offlink SPJ WAP7 on slow line being chased by 12342 Agnibina Express on fast line (and was overtaken at the next station) . Inspite of having LHB rake, this train runs at max 110kmph over ER.

Duronto had an SLR, supposed to be locked, but was carrying lots of unauthorised (?) passengers.

Black would better off in ER. It spends more time at HWH than at DHN. Sometimes it departs late from DHN due to maintainence delays at DHN CDO.

Day 3 :- 28th September. (Pictures 14 to 30)
----------
Pictures 1 to 6 :- The 'Muh Dikhai' of DMW's first Palindrome numbered loco HWH WAP 7 39093. I was going for a work when I received a call from Soham and he informed me that 39093 is in transit with 13120 Upper India. I dashed to Sealdah (luckily it is near my home) and clicked it and then went to work.

Pictures 12 and 13 :- TATA WAG 7 27572 with 58016 ADRA Shiromani Fast Passenger.
----------
Day 3 of RF was too good.
It was the day when Ispat got LHB and on the very same day AMUL WAP 5 and TATA Steel WAP 7 was present at Howrah at the same time.
Pictures 14 to 7 :- Captured at Howrah. Various TBs of LHB 12871 Ispat Express with its power TATA WAP 7 39012.
Picture 18 :- TATA WAP 7 39012 leading Ispat out of Santragachi.

Picture 21 :- TB of 12863/4 HWH YPR HWH Express TB.
Picture 22 :- TB of 18615/6 HWH RNC HTE Kriya Yoga Express.
Pictures 23 to 25 :- TATA WAP 7 37029 in its new makeover with 18616 Kriya Yoga.
TATA WAP 7 37029 and 37061 have a different designed livery than that of TATA WAP 7 37026 and 30614.
In the 1st TATA Steel Livery (37026 and 30614)
Football game is depicted and 100 years of Jamshedpur is present whereas in the 2nd TATA Steel Livery (37061 and 37029) Football is replaced by Archery and 100 years of Jamshedpur is not present. Other minor changes are too there.
Pictures 26 to 30 :- BRC WAP 5 30047 with 22911 Shipra Express. This is my first BRC WAP 5 cum Amul capture. So was special indeed.
Thank you. 🙏
