The loco seen at the right is also a Bombardier (6308) waiting for shunting activities for the rake which just came with 6310.

There are 12 Bombardier Loco imported in 1981 from Canada and are now only used for hauling freight (6300 series). Talked with one of the drivers and he confirmed that speed is one problem for these locos. Braking is excellent.

ISD WDM-2
There is a pantry coach, 1 ac chair, 1 ac coupe, 1 non-ac chair in the 6 coach Indian Maitree rake. The Loco, WDM2 (6409) which you are seeing just came at Dhaka Cantt station with Sundarban Express and going back to be connected at other end to go back to Khulna. The white loco seen at a distance is a DLW Loco WDM3 (6412). Najmul

From my limited exposure to BR; these locos are only used for freight services.

ISD WDM-2
ISD is Iswardi/Ishurdi Jn's station code. There is a BG diesel shed which homes DLW, MLW and Bombardier locos. The train, parked aside is Maitree Express (ER rake).

ISD perhaps is the code of Iswardi. Yes, in the background that is a rake of Maitree Express. Is there a pantry coach attached (third from front)?
