Augmentation of facilities for enhancement capacity of 3 phase locos to 50 locos per year. In long term perspective, production of 3- phase locos at CLW will increase and production of conventional locos will reduced gradually.

2 Project for creation of additional facility for enhancing the production capacity of CLW up to 200 locos per year.(AP-200)
Project for creation of additional facility for enhancing the production capacity of CLW up to 200 locos per year. This was required to enhance the production capacity of CLW to 200 locos per annum (including 50 three phase locos per annum) to meet the increased loco requirement of Indian Railway.

3 Modernization and augmentation of production capacity from 200 to 275 locos per year.(AP-275)
Modernization and augmentation of production capacity from 200 to 275 locos per year. The demand of electric locomotives is going up continuously to cope with the increase in freight traffic and passenger traffic and to take care of requirements of new routes of electrified. With increased electric locomotives requirement, CLW shall produce at the rate of 275 locomotives per year.

4 Electric Locomotive Factory at Dankuni, West Bengal
The unit will work as an ancillary unit of CLW. Initially state of art 3-phase high HP locomotive with regenerative breaking of 6000 HP (WAG-9) electric locomotive will be turned out. Subsequently, the infrastructural facilities shall be utilized for the production of 9000 HP locomotives in future.

5 Centre of excellence for design , development & evaluation of advanced technology system for electrical rolling stock.
The purpose of establishing the Centre of Excellence is to develop capability for designing, development and evaluation of advanced technology systems for Electric Rolling Stock. The idea is to become a technology exporter from present status of technology importer in Rolling Stock equipments. The main benefit that will accrue from this project is that we shall become self reliant in the field of development of Electric Rolling Stock equipments which will come in a big way not only for the domestic requirement of adoption of new technology in rolling stock but we shall be in a position to cater to the emerging world market as per the customized requirement of different countries.
