Model of the BCT-NDLS Rajdhani express rake hauled by a WCAM-1. The WCAM1 was a new addition to my model works and livened things up with this setup. The WCAM-1 model has a battery operated working light assembly (head lamp). I wonder if a Rajdhani was ever hauled by a WCAM-1 in a real life situation ? If so , how often ?.

The max speed of WCAM-1's is not over 110kmph. So After the Diesel's they were directly shifted to WCAM-2's which hauls to Raj and AK Raj exp on 120 kmph.

No, I do not think the 2951-52-53-54 were ever hauled by WCAM1s. They shifted from twin WDM2s to WCAM2. A haul by WCAM1 would be an exception due to loco failure. Shirish

Too good collection, nice efforts!! Will surely like to actually see all of them whenever I will come to Bombay - Sandeep Bhate.

Yah, The Rajdhani has been hauled by a WCAM1, cant remember when, but there are pics on i think Shankar's IR site, the WCAM-class loco section.

Thanks RangNath. I would have been more satisfied if I could have made these as working , "to the scale" ones.
