What a shame. The long hood sides are okay, resemble some US diesel. The SHF and LHF have been ruined :( And weird - IR shed folks remove the alanting whiskers from Deemers (which looked good with them) and put them on dippys. How unbelievably unaesthetic.

well framed indeed

I might not be aesthetic enough but I still find it as attractive except for the unique front cab shape being lost due it being rebuilt. Which is natural cos our regular DP4s and DG4s do not have the erstwhile Baaz shape infrastructure so when it was POH'ed it got our regular shape

Looks so horrible !!!!!!

Eeww! This is so bad! If SGUJ wanted to try a new livery, there are so many WDP-4s to experiment on, what was the need to spoil "Baaz" which had the most beautiful livery on a diesel loco in India! Common sense and aesthetics has really gone to the dogs on IR off late :(

DLS Siliguri has ruined the looks of 20012.

Yuck!! What a shame! A beautiful loco which was a sight to behold now reduced to this! What worse could SGUJ do than this? A beauty reduced to this caricature now :-(
