As a kid, I dreamt of a loco which is the combination of electric and diesel. Good catch anyway!!!

Hey! I never knew that we imported locomotives from the US. I thought they all came from the UK. I was so grossly wrong.

To Harsh - this operation is explained in message # 197184. These locos earn revenue in both trips - they are AEB equipped locos meant for ghat operation and haul as well as bank freight trains between Kulem and Castle Rock section. Apart from the superior hauling power of EMD locos, their precise dynamic brakes stop a train all the way to zero speed - DC motored locos of the earlier generation cannot match this performance.

It's raining Ratlam Jumbo these days. Nice one Ujjawal. Thanks for treating us with Jumbo pics.

Great thanks, but I liked the cropping of the image on Railpictures much better.
