Thanks a lot Sir for this ********************************************************************* news.
Mujhe is news ki hi TALASH thi.
Sach mano I am exalted today.
Ye news mere 3 Phase Loco research mein kaam ayega bahut.

think ab iss news ko dekhne ke baad sabko yakin ho jayega ke 3 Phase Loco is the future of IR please see the following lines:
"CLW Produced 250 electric locos in 2014-15 increasing the total holding of electric locomotives to 5049 out of which 862 locomotives are 3-Phase locomotives.(Already shared ELoco Statistics of 862 3 Phasers here) CLW plans to turn out last conventional loco in November 2015 and last GTO based 3-phase locomotive in October 2015. Thereafter only energy efficient, environment friendly IGBT based 3-Phase locomotives will be manufactured."(My Bengali news Entry# 1509533 is not fake which is proved)
Regarding 3 Phase EMU:
"Two Stainless steel AC EMU rakes manufactured at ICF equipped with IGBT based 3-phase propulsion system supplied by M/s Bombardier Transportation against MUTP- Phase II have been introduced in Western Railway for Mumbai suburban. 36 more such rakes will be manufactured at ICF during 2015-16. These have speed potential of 110 Kmph.
· Order has been placed for procurement of 14 fully furnished rakes equipped with IGBT based 3 phase propulsion system and stain less steel car body for Kolkata Metro on M/s Dalian/China for replacement of old rakes & additional services."

3 Phase Locos are "ENERGY EFFICIENT". Conventional Ones are NOT.
Any Denial?????
Now IR have 880 3 Phase out of which IGBT: 196 GTO: 674
AC/DC(WCAM Series) 85
Conventional Locos :4105
Total...

Loco Strength of IR: 5070
