Watering pictures

	These are mountains of salt at Vavania, I hope it does not rain here ! Sarosh and I ride the buffer beam in the section, to get this view. Note the MG siding that goes right at the base of the salt mountain for loading ...
	... and joins the Up line at Vavania station. This is the view forward from the buffer beam. The loco is deafening and my ears are sore from the constant blast from the cylinders and the smoke box, besides the loco was hot to touch !
	The real purpose of the train, to provide water to the dry hamlets along the way. This is the Vavania station where a 2" pipe is used to fill the concrete tank at a lower level.
	Driver N. Mansukh on the right, his assistant driver in the middle and the fireman (and the coal breaker) with his lump smashing hammer, pose with their machine at Vavania.
	A member of the 'sweetest community in the world', a true railwayman, the assistant driver poses on his own. Note the driver's box in the cab, that holds all the supplies needed for the trip. It carries the various manuals, logs, flags, detonators, lanterns and a spare pair of spectacles (if the driver wear glasses).
	Did you know that the driving wheel of a goods loco (YG & WG) lacks flanges ? I didn't ! Here is YG 4252's main wheel.
	The train stops for watering for the last time, just outside Maliya Miyana Jn.
