Less than 6 months old 16368 Banaras (Varanasi) Kanniyakumari, Kashi Tamil Sangamam Weekly Express with WAP7 locomotive entering Warangal railway station captured from the terrace of my uncle's home which is only a few meters away from the station. My summer evenings are spent here spotting all the trains passing through this station. I can even hear the train announcements during night time sitting on my bed when the fans are off 😊
