Alright Mr. Rohit Kapoor, you are wrong in a sense because Jamalpur is not in West Bengal but is in Bihar. Also, WDM-6 is a very rare class of loco from BWN shed which is not used for any freight or passenger service. It is primarily used for shunting purposes around BWN station. It is highly likely that the WDM-6 loco is here at JMP for maintenance purposes as JMP has a large workshop for diesel locos.

The WDM6 is a potpourri loco - the chassis is that of a WDM2, but the bogies are Bo-Bo, the prime mover is the same as that of a YDM4 along with the body shell but the cab is again from the WDM2.

From this end, it exactly resembles a YDM4 :)

This loco is extremely rare, there is only 2 locos which are both in BWN. I guess since JMP has a large workshop, you can often find various diesel locos of ER (Eastern Railway) here!!! As illustrated by this picture.
