I have never seen such train before, maybe also coz I am a new railfan and for not very long time that I am paying attention to trains closely, but this was interesting.

BTW, this post continues to be part of my railfanning session near PKU-Panskura Junction, and this was shot near NPRM railway station, near Panskura on the busy Howrah Kharagpur Railway line under SER-South Eastern Railway Zone..

While I was waiting for the train I saw this KZJ-Kazipet WAG7 monster (loco no. 28443) which came in with an all Parcel Van rake train. As I mentioned above, I never saw such all parcel van rake based train, that too in so many numbers and was being hauled by a non-shunter locomotive, ie. a WAG7. I have seen however some parcel van rakes being shifted one place to another by shunters, but not as this. Watch out the video mentioned in this link/ thumbnail player below.

Watch the loco hauling parcel van only rakes here:
