With horns blaring, the loco pilot of train # 6340 led by a ERS WDM2A, notches up as a puff of smoke emanates. The assistant driver leans outside indicating a green flag to the guard of the rake and awaits for a reciprocal from his counterpart. The rake snakes onto the main line. Note the green outer-starter in front of the Wadi Jn Outer cabin (right corner). | |

| Train # 1013 waits at Wadi Jn. The ED WDM2A # 18534 takes a breather as the Loco-Pilot talks to the guard on his two-way radio. This particular livery of ED(Erode)is quite eye-catching. Notice the logo for ED loco shed on the front of the loco. Also visible is the Single-beam headlamp and the emergency flasher on its left. |
