Old is gold. This is better design with brake controllers at correct height and legroom below them.

I wonder when will IR realize that driver needs legroom too?

Max speed 110 kms means TAO659 TMs have been regeared. Note Brake cylinder shows brakes are applied. Addition of heater may have been done during POH. Folding seats with backrests are better than bar stool in WCAM1.

No legroom. Poor ergonomics.

Great pics Gautam,

The uP based unit replaces the dial type tap indicator - the absence of the tap indicator is partly responsible for the uncluttered look.

Freight Trains on IR have a Max Speed of 75 KMPH. Though the WAG 7 has a Max speed of 100 KMPH, the speedo of this loco was set to sound the over speed buzzer at 75.

That is a sort of rubber sealant used generally to waterproof the windscreen
