Metre Gauge Magic | ALCO 251D Based YDM4 Spits Fire!

14 August 2017, Patalpani (Madhya Pradesh), India

After years of dreaming and waiting, I finally managed to travel to Indore and shoot the metre gauge YDM4 class locomotives for the first time. And I got rewarded with a fire-breathing little monster of a locomotive!

Part of the soon-to-be closed Mhow-Sanawad Metre Gauge section, this region offers beautiful views of the surrounding hills, the Patalpani Waterfall and this beautiful little train traversing high up on the hills. This particular train is the Sanawad-Mhow Passenger, led by a YDM4 at the front and banked by another YDM4. As the banker approaches me, the pilots let the 1400hp powerpack loose and it immediately responds by belching out copious amounts of fire and smoke as it pushes the train up the final stretch of the ghat section.

Enjoy the show! :)
