The river Subarnekha while flowing through Ranchi forms a lot of waterfalls in Ranchi, but the most beautiful of them is Hudru Falls. Falling from a height of 320 feet, the Hudru Falls create a spectacular landscape and is extremely popular with tourists.

 

To capture this view of Hudru Falls I went down approx.1200 steps to reach at the base of the fall so returning uphill proved very difficult for me.

The Hindu Falls gives a panoramic view of Chota Nagpur Plateau. One needs to go down approx.1000 steps to reach at the base of the fall so returning uphill might be difficult.

It is the 34th highest waterfall in India. It is one of the most famous tourist places in the region.

It is 45 kilometres from Ranchi, off the Ranchi-Purulia Road and one has to travel 21km from main road

Hundru Falls, Ranchi

 

This is not much of a waterfall to admire in December as water was less compared to rainy season . Located about 45 km away from the city. Access to the waterfall is ardous as one has to climb down and climb up a flight of 1100 stairs. Its extremely tiresome doing the flight of stairs.

The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear.

Nothing serious about this photo. Its just an experiment with my lens. I took this photograph very near to the water of Jonha falls near Ranchi just to see what happens. This was the result.

The appearance of Kans grass (Saccharum spontaneum) in Ranchi city feels heavenly, not only because it so lovely, the white against the green, but it is also a happy reminder that the festive season is about to begin!

Sunset in Ranchi city of India. It looks like that ring of clouds is seen surrounding it.

About WAM 4 Locomotive : The WAM 4 is a very successful class of 4850 HP & 25 KV AC electric locomotives used in India. The first member of the class was indigenous designed and built by CLW in 1970. The class was produced until 1983. The locomotives in the class feature rheostatic braking, and MU capability. Being designed specially for mixed traffic, the WAM 4 class has rendered excellent service. Now, most of these are used exclusively for passenger traffic. The WAM 4 loco is still among the most heavily used electric locos of IR. A single WAM 4 can generally haul up to a 24 coach passenger rake. The WAM 4 has six traction motors, and originally they were wired to be available in different configurations at different power settings. At notches up to 14, all motors were in series (at notch 14 all resistors dropping out), up to notch 21 in series parallel combinations (three pairs of motors in series, the pairs themselves being in parallel), and further notches with all motors in parallel (at notch 30 all motors are in parallel with resistors dropping out). With increasing use of the WAM 4 locos for passenger traffic the all parallel configuration was deemed more desirable since it allowed higher speeds and higher acceleration. Most of the WAM 4 locos now have their MU capability disabled as RDSO disapproves of these locos running MU'ed over 100 km/h !

 

Till date Tatanagar (TATA) Electric Loco Shed of South Eastern Railway has maintained its all WAM 4s' in best condition ! This locomotive is fairly fit for high speed run !
