This loco is present at the NRM, chanakyapuri and yes mgs shed is painted on it
MGS was supposed to have 2 sheds, MGS/ER (which kept ALCo s) & MGS/NR (which kept the EMD WDM4s) . Probably IR didn't get TOT for the EMDs, hence foreign staffs maintained them
Yes, MGS had an NR-owned diesel loco shed exclusively for WDM4 locos. The shed was shutdown sometime around 2000.
