@Anamitra , I did not find any cctv in LHF. Regarding LHF driving, this loco has better visibility than WDG4. The LPs are not that much uncomfortable in driving WDG4/WDP4 LHF mode. In fact few driver takes LHF as their life saver in some past unfortunate incident.

I must thank Apurva for his extreme efforts to find technical meaning of my meaningless pictures.

Thanks Subho for taking all the trouble for us. This loco is HUGE and I pity the LPs driving LHF. Do they have CCTV in the Long hood?

TOO-LATE though, but finally a locomotive has provided TOILET. :)

Good job, Subhabrata. A great step forward for IR ... even though this loco cab reminds me of Shanx's "Elec Bill Counter" ... maybe this is the "Elec Company HQ" albeit diesel-powered! :-)
