Good catch. Damage due to fire. Its a DMU/HP-DMU's driving cab.

Surprising that the coupler and the cow catcher seem to be intact while the upper body has been damaged badly. Did something fall on it or did it hit a broken over bridge or something?

Is Kanchrapara some type of morgue for locos?

The Bogie (the source of confusion) just brought for transportation, it’s not the original loco bogie.

I think it is WAP4 only. WAP6 numbers are in 224xx series only.

No Kharad bhai they are not the same.This one is in BSL livery while the one you linked is in GZB's Raj livery.Horn trumpets different and here the right side of the cab is more damaged.
