Great:Especially the explanation! Great
Seen here is the Second Imported Locomotive from General Motors-EMD, Canada, GT46MAC #12002 or WDG4, homed at Hubballi Diesel Loco Shed, hauling a BTPGN Freight (wagons mainly used for carrying Liquified Gas) waiting for clearance at Khadki.

The BCHNL wagon acts as a barrier between Locomotive and Tanker wagons, for safety purpose, Loco is not directly coupled with the Tankers, whether it's an Electric or Diesel.

In E-Locos the Pantograph produces sparks when it slightly looses contact with OHE, While in D-Locos, it also produces Fire granules through the Funnel or Exhausts, though these sparks and Granules are not Threat to Person Travelling or Standing beside the train, but it would be a Disaster if it comes in contact with the Highly Flammable content loaded in the Tanker wagons, hence a Dummy wagon is used, the wagon can be any freight car varient like BOXN, BOBYN, BCN or Caboose, it also helps in reducing the jerk from the Locomotives while coupling or while in movement. If coupled directly, the oil in the first wagon would spill out, due to frequent jerks.

Date of Capture: 2 August 2024.

Agree Useful Useful
The simple principle here is TTE has to know about it.
Since you already have confirmed ticket and 2 from your group are already boarding from Lucknow itself. Just tell them to show their e-ticket to TTE with their ID Proof and notify the TTE that rest of the passengers will be boarding from Bareilly due to sudden change in plans.
Please ensure that those 2 passengers have pictures of ID proofs of other 4 passengers boarding from Bareilly.

case your ticket is from PRS Counter, ensure that those 2 boarding from Lucknow have the original otherwise it'd be counted as traveling without ticket and entire ticket would be liable for cancellation by the time train reaches Bareilly.
TTE will not cancel that ticket since you've already represented your group by those 2 members.
In June I had a booking with my Colleague in Karnataka Sampark Kranti from Yeshwantpur to Kacheguda with boarding at Hubballi. Due to last minute changes we were stuck in Bellary and changing Boarding Point window got closed. Had my Colleague in Hubballi notify the TTE about change in Boarding by sharing pictures of our ID and PDF of our E-ticket. It worked and TTE waited for us till Bellary- it's an extreme measure do not try it as TTE might be different but the simple fact is TTE has to be notified truthfully.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
