Sad to see howlers in silent mode. At least 2 - 3 WCG2's should be kept in NRM/HWH rail musuem.

Very pitiable sight for a Railfan like me who always loved and will always love this Locomotive, CR should preserve at least 4 to 5 units of WCG-2 and keep a special short section energized to 1500V equipped with a Static Electrical Neutral Zone which can be switched back over to 25000V AC (Similar to Igatpuri), my only concern is these units can be a case study to future Electrical Engineers as these Locomotives are the last one's on whole of IR to have Resistor speed regulation, rest all Locomotives use Tap Changer Method to Regulate their speed.
