The HP of WAM- 1 is too much back dated... It needs modification..
info about WAM-1
----------
Early 2800 hp SNCF design for 25kV AC, with ignitron rectifiers. Introduced in 1959, they were mostly deployed by ER in the Howrah-Asansol-Dhanbad-Mughalsarai section. They were less frequently found 'upstream' in the Delhi-Kanpur-Mughalsarai section, and in the Igatpuri-Bhusaval section of the Central Railway. Mostly used for non-express passenger trains, but some were used double-headed for freight service. Some were still [12/98] in operation on ER (Sealdah-Lalgola passenger, etc.).

Its not possible dat Lalgola were once pulled by WAM 1... The reason is that Krishna Nagar City Junction- Lalgola stretch was electrified just 4-5 years ago... Before dat, all Sealdah- Lalgola Passengers were hauled by WDM's, mostly WDM-2.
