Hi Members,

I've been observing for the past fortnight that all the Mumbai - Pune Intercity trains (Indrayani, Intercity, Deccan Express, Deccan Queen, Sinhagad and Pragati) are getting WCAM3/WCAM 2 and it seems like WAP-7 isn't allotted anymore to these trains.

shed or i should say the first locomotive shed of India has older generation locomotives till date and are fit to run inside specific jurisdiction. They have managed to use the Push-pull concepts, modifying their WCAM'S to work on AC current.

We see VATVA and RATLAM has started homing elocos effectively, but KALYAN DLS seems to be derating their locomotives and not getting any eloco of their own. Some of the fellow railfans say KYN ELS is not spacious enough to hold many WAP7'S, i feel KYN DLS should hold their WCAM'S and few WAG7's instead.

यह लोको शॉर्टेज २०२४ तक चलेगा तब तक भूल जाओ अब हर जगह wag९ wag५ wcam२/३ wag७m यही लोको राज करते हुए दिखेंगे क्योंकि बनारस लोको वर्क्स wap७ के उत्पादन के बारे मै भूल गया है सबसे ज्यादा ध्यान इस समय wag९ लोको को दिया जा रहा है भर भर के wag९ लोको का उत्पादन हो रहा है इतना की अगर तुम blw द्वारा नए बनाए wag९ लोको को एक लाइन मैं खड़े करोगे ना तो यह वाह csmt से पूरा कल्याण कर्जत लोनावला तक लाइन लगेगी इतना उत्पादन हुआ है wag९ लोको का तो भूल जाओ wap७ लोको को
