Brand New Local train...Hardly 1000 Kms total running in his career...10 years in one place...at mumbai local carshed ....But few facts we don't know...about this rake....1) Only local in India to have tested in top speed 140 km /hr...2) First self propelled train in India to reach top speed 140 km/hr before train 18...May be design failure but coaches are brand new....10 crore Extra money spend by railways for this train manufacturing compared to normal Siemens rake...Indian Railways please used this local rake as 25 years life is spending for this brand new coaches .... Please change motors of this rake if design failed...Few Old DC local trains motors are till available which can be used to make this local train as a retrofitted rake...with top speed of 85km/hr...in ThaneNerul local emu section......but don't waste money of Indian people as Indian railways running as a government company...

And yess this rake achieved had achieved speed more then 110+ km/hr in vr - drd section , but later rdso didn't sanction it so it was kept at the sidding in virar car shed , but now its back in service and this rake belongs to WR not CR , And mostly now Bombarider and Medha rake has taken over the old AC / dc & Siemens local , Rest the modification and running rake lies...
