Re# 760115-29                  
Subash u are correct about content of ethyl alcohol ie spirit in beer. I am not a Chemical engineer but have seen warning on beer bottles about flammability, it will not catch fire by itself but accelerate or enhance fire. Better the person who is required to carry such goods he / she can use luggage van booking and declare the contents of goods. I think there will not be issue if he wants to carry a carton or two but not many bottles else he could be voilating liquor law of the state. He also need to check as state like Gujrat one cannot carry alcohol. Hope that helps.

Re# 759176-24                  
I think the only diff is prime mover:
In Diesel engine the prime mover is reciprocating diesel combustion engine which is driver for electric generator. The electric generated by generator rotates the traction motor. Motor trasfrers the roating motion to axel of loco.
In electric engine the mechanism is pretty simple. The electric current flows to motors from OH wires via pantograph. The current drives the motor and transmission of power from motor to axel via gear train mechanism.
Due to reciprocating engine in diesel loco the out of balance forces some time creates sudden pull pause pull affect as the throttle valve opens suddenly for maximum charge. Also this limits the speed factor as out of balance forces could cause loco to

speed is also limited by the fact that diesel locos have lower power to weight ratio, than electric ones.

Looks like its Cement loaded in these rakes. I will mark great but not for the plight of labours. There should be a better way to unload these wagons rather putting these poor innocent chaps at risk of Lung diseases. At least they must be povided with PPE such as Nose Mask and Goggles.

train like Mahabodhi has got LHB coaches...
but before Mahabodhi express, trains Like Geetanjali Express, TN Express, AP Express, Paschim Express, Gujrat Mail, Coromondel Express etc. should have been provided with LHB coaches.
I am not saying that Mahabodhi is not an important train, but what other zones are doing. why they are not able to provide LHB coaches to there respective premier trains.
i think ECR is doing good job, they gave Patna Rajdhani LHB coach and now two of the SF trains, Sampoornakranti & Mahabodhi, are also running with LHB coaches. other zones need to catch up.
