The early morning atmosphere is what attracts me the most while shooting trains. And this particular place holds an exquisite position in my heart, always enjoyed watching trains roll by this bridge across the mighty Sharavathi river in Karnataka. Fortunate enough to be here at the right time.
Do you feel the atmosphere? Lashing rain, growing darkness and moving machines.

Huff Puff, and there she goes! For a moment this scene made me think that if I was in Scotland somewhere around the Glenfinnan viaduct. But no, it’s the X-class oil-fired steam locomotive from Switzerland pushing the train from Mettupalayam with all its might tackling the gradients of the Nilgiris.
Misty Morning! A passenger curiously peeks out looking at a freight train heading north during the early hours of a monsoon day! Rainy mornings are the best.
