Whats the future of this loco? Will it be preserved? I never knew any of these existed today Posted by Jimmy Jose on 2010 Nov 06 03:39:58 +0000 |

Very pitiable sight for a Railfan like me who always loved and will always love this Locomotive, CR should preserve at least 4 to 5 units of WCG-2 and keep a special short section energized to 1500V equipped with a Static Electrical Neutral Zone which can be switched back over to 25000V AC (Similar to Igatpuri), my only concern is these units can be a case study to future Electrical Engineers as these Locomotives are the last one's on whole of IR to have Resistor speed regulation, rest all Locomotives use Tap Changer Method to Regulate their speed.

This Locomotive was so unique on whole of IR network such that it had its unique wheel arrangement and the use of white metal bearings in the power transmission rods, thank you for sharing this pic.........:-):-):-) Posted by Kaushik Dharwadkar on 2010 Nov 06 01:59:26 +0000 |

Sad to see these locomotives rotting away when some of their foreign counterparts with 1C+C1 bogies are still going strong on heritage lines. Please see Posted by R Viswa Chandra on 2010 Nov 05 08:26:40 +0000 |

This is one amazing shot - Sid is very lucky for getting the RoRo on such an exotic location. Posted by Apurva Bahadur on 2010 Nov 05 04:30:49 +0000 |
Very sad sight. I remember Tambaram yard a few years ago when YAM 1s were cut up like these.
