4-of-18) Broad gauge, oil fired, class SGS 0-6-0 2473 (Vulcan Foundry, 1923) performs a run-past between Gharibwal and Haran Pur on its way back to Malakwal, Pakistan, 21st December 1993.

Since the tour group were travelling on this train it stopped so that they could get off. The train then reversed for some distance before making a vigorous run-past so that the group could photograph it. The train then stopped and reversed to allow the group to get on it before setting off again.  This was a timetabled service train and the normal passengers had to put up with it!
