Interesting epigraphy on the brass plates: Top plate, "Surakhsha pratham", i.e., "safety first". Bottom plate just above the doors of the coal furnace, "Koyla swadisht hai", meaning "the coal is tasty". The loco appears to be tastefully decorated inside.

But it was based for most, if not all, of its life at Kurdavadi (KWV) if I'm reading the number correctly as 724. Posted by John Lacey on 2007 Mar 11 05:54:29 +0000 |

I wonder if two drivers from this loco could have replaced two mis-matched drivers in WP #7200 as seen at http://tinyurl.com/2kkzsg ? Posted by Prakash Tendulkar on 2007 Feb 22 20:29:32 +0000 |
Very interesting picture - according to Hughes C-2 should be a CWD supplied in 1943. Perhaps the Canadian WPs were delivered with numbers starting with C-1 in error, and later renumbered starting at C-251
