Cantilever Assembly
This assembly was used for AC traction masts in the early 70s (or before) - such as Howrah-Tundla/Durg, Igatpuri-Bhusaval, Virar-Ahmedabad. Since then, they changed the orientation of the register arm dropper so that it originates from the middle of the bracket tube instead of the top. As an illustration, take a look at the left mast in http://www.irfca.org/gallery/openline/IMG_5833.jpg.html and note the orientation of the register arm dropper - the length gets cut down by half, resulting in huge savings in raw material.

Nice work! The second one though is almost entirely based of UK's Network South East livery.

Yeah. I agree with Binai. The first one is the current MRVC livery. Other two liveries look superb!

Diagrams found on the walls of GZB ELS. Didn't make any sense to me. Can anyone explain what they are for? Sandeep Marzara
This diagram explains how to charge & discharge vacuum while hauling vacuum braked rakes. NRV are Non Return Valves which ensures uni-directional flow. Dushyant Jani.
