How in the world do you manage to be at the right place at the right time??? Good work. She looks good in her new look! Is she longer than the P4's?

wow.. a new WAG7 in the WAP4 clothes.The only difference i saw from a WAP4 apart from the livery is the WAG lookalike MU cables in both sides.Is this the CLW workshop?

Wow!! WAG9 attached to a passenger alike rakes(AB)!!!.Looks more matching than any other locos coming for the passenger transit.Can be more matching if attached to LHB coaches..

ET has had them for a long time. Perhaps, you might want to check the gallery for more images?

Standard IR nomenclature precludes the possibility of this loco being battery powered as evidenced by the presence of the A in the classification which can only denote an AC powered loco.Further,at the time this loco was manufactured,battery technology cannot have been so advanced(at least in India)as to be able to power a shunting loco and a battery powered vehicle needs to have sophisticated electronics to be able to run the vehicle properly which again can't have been available at BRC shed.I think this loco probably had resistance control and also had a panto and a transformer/rectifier which have been removed.
The mystery is in the B which denotes the type of duty for which the loco is meant.

Nice catch !! Why is "A" used in class name ? Did she have a pantograph ??
