ASN/ HWH WAM-4 that it regularly gets, 13502 Sealdah (SDAH)- Asansol (ASN) INTERCITY Express (via Main Line) approaches Bidhan Nagar Road (BNXR) station enroute with grand-daddy 22025 Arakkonam (AJJ) shed WAP- 1 in WAP- 4 livery (Ex. GZB shed) (Undergone MTR at Dahod New Workshop, WR. Air brake only. SI unit & DBR provided). BNXR is just the next station to Sealdah (at a distance of 3 kms), and the train is seen crawling due to an under-pass construction going on just adjacent to the platform. The Queen, namely 12313 Sealdah (SDAH)- New Delhi (NDLS) RAJDHANI Express departs just behind this train, and follows it upto Dum Dum Junction (DDJ), after which it takes the Chord Line, and this train takes the Main Line.. This train uses the Sealdah- Naihati- bandel- Burdwan- Asansol route.

A couple of dats ago, I uploaded a video of YPR-DBRG Exp with GZB WAP-4.. Now I dont understand why VSKP officials would send the NR loco to SER instead of sending it back to NR... And SER again returned the loco back to VSKP instead of transferring it to ER, where it could have hauled trains to NR as the regular link..

Probably sometimes due to non availability of regular links to a specified train.
That's y these WAP-5's n WAP-7's aren't kept idle for long time. that's one of the reasons why LGD's WAP-7 is found strolling almost in the every corner of India.

Yes.. Very true... You know what, once Kalka Mail was made to arrive at HWH with a hell of an offlink GZB WAP-5... And in the evening, the WAP-5 was send to DHN by the DD Express, thus another offlink... I have a video of the DD with WAP-5...
