The trusty ALCOs now in a new Avatar - The first 'electric' ALCO is set to rollout at the end of this month. The 3100HP diesel locomotives will be converted to 5000HP electric locomotives, with 2 units bound together as a single 10000 HP electric locomotive.
With electrification progressing at a rapid pace, it is exciting to see DLW reinventing itself and coming up with useful innovations. Hope this project turns out to be a success!

this seems to be an internal project they took up.
the thing is, until DLW doesn't do things like these, they'll loose relevance and mech dept of railways probably won't be pleased with that :P
also, we need those High HP locos, our freights will only get longer and heavier with time, not shorter.
