The Vittal Birdev Annual Yatra, something that is not heard of, is celebrated at Pattan Kodoli village in Kolhapur district of Maharashtra attended by thousands of devotees coming from Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra between 17th and 24th of October. The festival is celebrated to offer prayers to the community diety of the shepherds, Shri Vittal Birdev, an incarnation of Lord Shiva. They consider that the festival and rituals would bring good fortune.
Vittal Birdev Yatra One of the craziest festival yet the one which remains unknown and unexplored is the annual Haldi Festival at Pattan Kadoli in Maharastra. Shepherds from Maharastra, Andra Pradesh, Karnataka assemble at Pattan Kadoli and celebrate the festival by immersing themselves and everyone around with Turmeric Powder. Over 200000 devotees merge into this little village which gets packed to the brim and of course, gets coated with yellow color.
Shri Vittal Birdev Annual Festival is observed in at Pattan Kodoli village 17km from Kolhapur (Maharashtra, India). It is the birth anniversary or Janmotsav festival of Vitthal Birdev Maharaj, who is a reincarnation of Lord Vishnu. Birdev is the family deity of the Shepherd community from Maharashtra, Karnataka, Goa and Andhra Pradesh (India). On that day, I saw Devotees of God Vitthal Birdev are taking slaps of the hunter on their bodies without any care and without any fear.

45593 "Kolhapur" is seen at an Open Day at Barrow Hill on the 22nd July 2000. Apparently Vintage Trains had plans to overhaul the Jubilee to main line standard with the aim of having it operational in time for the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham in 2022. I wonder how they're getting on as the Games are now long-gone.
LMS 6P Jubilee Class No 5593 'Kolhapur' hreads a southbound breakdown train from Loughborough to Leicester North on the Great Central Railwa passing Swithland Sidings on 30th October 1992 - A scene that has changed dramatically - and for the better, for sure..... The present day restoration of Swithland Sidings and the associated signalling is a major preservation achievement.

From a grainy and scratched negative
45593 'Kolhapur' stands at Bradford Forster Square on the morning of 30th April 1966 prior to working "The South Yorkshireman No.5" railtour to Carlisle.
45593 was one of 3 Jubilee class locomotives based at 55A Holbeck at the time,the others being 45697 and 45660,whilst 45647,45562 and 45581 were based just a couple of miles away at Farnley Junction (55C closed in October 1966).
The South Yorkshireman No.5 Railtour started here at Bradford Forster Square at 08:25 and traversed the "Little North Western" to Carnforth where punters disembarked to visit 10A. 45593 would then haul the train to Carlisle where it was declared a failure,with 70035 working the train back to Bradford via the S&C in it's absence. Carlisle Kingmoor and Upperby Depots were also visited during the day.
45593,45697 and 45562 would go on to be the last 3 Jubilees in traffic with 45562 'Alberta' the last to be withdrawn in October 1967. Happily 45593 was preserved.

Possibly the first time out since withdrawal by BR and repainting - 'Kolhapur' ready for her short train ride up the bank (4 coaches) with 'Clun Castle' t'other way round , at the rear. . The Jubilee looked absolutely 'stunning ' in that glorious livery - pity that BR could only come up with their blue & white for the short train. Still - as BR organised the show it was pretty good so shouldnt nit-pick! . Clun Castle , a Black 5 , 'Cookham Manor' and 'Princess Elizabeth' were booked , but the 'Lizzie' couldnt make it. 4472 was also to visit and take a proper 'train' out & back. A Steam Fair was also run . , Frequent heavy showers unfortunately made photography difficult ! . This particular shot was upstaged by a later sunny (wet) one - hence the B category.
All in all - a marvellous day - if you didnt mind getting drenched - at least it solved the usual problem of too many people in the way. 29th.September 1968.

Working children from generation to generation are still a common sight at brickworks as they regularly employ entire families - who often make their homes on site. Photo taken at Bhosalewadi village, 100 km to the north of Kolhapur city in Maharashtra province, India.
