| Eastern Region Naihati station B-B 25kv AC BG electric locomotive WAG-1 20875 (Chittaranjan 1965) trundles through with a long train of four- and eight-wheeled vans. The literally "sacred cows" of India unconcernedly munch on! All 112 Class WAG-1 have been withdrawn; one is displayed in the Indian Railways' musuem at Delhi. 2.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| Eighty years of history on the cab side of DHR NG (2ft) 0-4-0ST B 782. Built by Shar Stewart in 1899, a second plate tells of the locomotive's rebuilding forty years later at Tindharia Works, then inside the stencilled box at left is TDH 20.4.79, showing that after a further forty years it had left Tindharia Works on that date, following an overhaul. Later named MOUNTAINEER, B 782 is currently stored at Tindharia; 5.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| Northeast Frontier Railway NG (2ft) DHR 0-4-0ST B 782 (Sharp Stewart 4561/1899) pauses near Sukna, when working a freight train, for the crew to eat their lunch! 5.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| stern Railway Bandel engine shed where BG 2-8-2 CWD 12311 (Montreal Locomotive Works 73562/1945) is receiving running repairs to is motion. The connecting rod has been removed - a fitter's assistant is sitting on it! - while the senior fitter makes some adjustments to the Walschaerts valve gear's radius bar. Maintaining the Eastern Railway's tradition, the locomotive is in a filthy condition! 2.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| A very dirty Eastern Railway BG 4-6-0 HPS1 24234 (VF 5482/1946) arrives at Ranaghat with P384 a passenger train from Gede, border station with Bangladesh; 2.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| Eastern Railway Ranahghat BG engine shed 4-6-0 HPS1 24245 (VF 5493/1946) receives attention while the usual team of ladies makes ready to sift through cinders and collect unburnt coal in their hand-baskets; 2.12.1979Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| Eastern Railway Bandel engine shed 2-8-2 WG 10447 (Chittaranjan 1967) simmers while waiting for its next duty. Joining it is 2-8-2 CWD 12262 (Canadian Locomotive Company 2242/1945). The tower building at left, with ornamental archway housed the depot's lifting gear; 2.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| Eastern Railway Bandel BG engine shed; a steam-powered coaling crane No.ER 706 refuelling 2-8-4T WT 14002 (Chittaranjan 1959); 2.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| To prove that Eastern Railway steam locomotives could be clean, BG 2-8-4T WT 14002 (Chittaranjan 1959), has recently been repaired at Permabur Works and turned out in passenger green livery. The big tank engine was one of the few of her kind left in service; 2.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| By December 1979 only a few of the seventy-two Indian Railway Standard (IRS) "Heavy Pacific" of Class XC remained in service, all at the Eastern Railways' Burdwan engine shed. With little work to do and a short future ahead, in green livery with some red lining-out, XC 22214 (Vulcan Foundry 4333/1929) was shed pilot at Burdwan; 2.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| So dirty the green paint could not be seen, IRS "Heavy" 4-6-2 XC 22225 (VF 4134/1928) was said to be on "stand-by duty" at the Eastern Region's Burdwan engine shed, but it must be wondered how effective it would have been if called upon to be an active stand-by! Note the BWN stencilled below the locomotive's cab side number, indicating that it was allocated to Burdwan depot; 2.12.1979. Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
| The sun may, metaphorically, be about to set upon the XC Class Pacifics, but although physically it had set on 2nd December 1979, the moon still cast a light upon XC 22225 (VF 4134 1928). Roger Griffiths roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
