The loco passes me. Note the 'Advanced Starter' at
'Proceed' (fully vertical). The driver has brought the loco to idle (and hence no smoke)
so as to enter the main line at 15 Kmph over . After the train comes on to the main line
after the Karad cabin, the driver would accelerate once more to lead the train to next
station Shenoli (SNE) some 13 kms away. Note the spike below the driver's window which was
used (not in this section) to collect the token hoop from a mechanical arm. The 'recycled'
(retired ?) pieces of vaccum pipes next to the spike are used as a damping element for the
just caught token hoop.
Note the small flag at the roof of the first coach. This turns vertical when the Alarm
Chain has been pulled in this coach. This destroys the vacuum in the train pipe and
applies the brakes. The alarm is reset by turning the flag back to horizontal position.
