You are right, "These locos are seeing their sunset at present"

Instead of scrapping the locomotives, I think IR can plinth each them in front of every major / minor station.

Eg. Steam loco MAWD 1798 (New Guwahati) plinthed in front of New Jalpaiguri Jn (NJP).

Indian Railways is pioneer in scrapping!!!! Why can't we preserve these cute locos ?

A dual braked YDM4! Why do the Lumding YDM4s need air brake capabilities? Do MG wagons/coaches with air brakes exist - maybe just in these parts? Local railfans, please find answers.

The LMG shed deserves our respect for an excellent livery and a set of lovingly maintained powers.

Great capture!!!
You have explored one of the most important (but less known) MG Diesel Shed of Indian railways!

Outstanding capture!!!
This MLW YDM4A deserves a place in NRM as it is one of the rarest species.
Nice paint job.

Awesome one, Binai. And nice to see a WDM series with AC cab. This train is a WR rake and not an SR one. I have seen it with GOC and ABR locos. But the link has now stabilised to VTA WDM 3D

@ Apu Sir and Deepak Sir,
VTA WDM3D 11125 and 11127 have AC cabs.
