That is because the nose is not rounded off like it is in regular WPs. The loco looks like a barrel rather than the much loved bullet like regular ones. I think even the sides are more streamlined in regular WPs.

Why do you say it is unstreamlined?

Hard to believe that structure stands till today though the steam locos have long gone! I saw it just 2 weeks back when I had gone to BNC. It is now used a goods depot

The crane must be having dual brakes, or atleast brake pipes for air brakes in case the rest of the breakdown rake is air braked.

This looks strange. I can kind off make out two brake hose pipes of the Air Brake type. Such an old machine with Air Brakes? Or was it converted?

No, this CR line was not electrified at the time of the photo.
