Here's a video someone uploaded of Patna-Vasco SF EXP (12742) hauled by WAG-9H on its first LHB Run from PNBE overall upgrading it to LHB is of no use if a WAG engine is used to haul it restricting it to 100 Kmph. Credits : Railway Rythms.

It is better to revert this train to KJM WDP4D end to end it's previous loco link if WAP4/7 is not available. Also Pantry car should be added to this train too.
