Last train on DC power on Western Railway, Mumbai

Last DC power EMU train on Bombay's Western Rly

Spot the cake with candles saying 84. (DC locals were introduced in 1928--84 years ago)

The pantograph and the motor coach

The old signages and Jessop windows

The power horn 

The motor coach, once again

Bowing out of Churchgate station, for ever...

The ceremonial board

The model of an older rake at the exhibition on the occasion.

    I wanted to be there but I was stuck with a writing workshop hence could not attend this historic occasion. Now that you have the pictures, please ensure you save them really well so that we can save these posterity and walk down the memory lane to think of a time when we had trains which ran on DC traction and had grey and red shades which served Mumbaikars without complaints for 84 years. I am sure it must have been an emotional moment for the employees of Western Railway and the motormen.
