seems to be having a CR SLR coach at the front and the loco looks awful with paint peeling off in several places. Seems that all Manufacturing units of IR are having the same painting technique

BHEL will produce 50 of these beasts initially. My hunch is that this livery is to differentiate it from the CLW built shells. The wheel clearance and the subtle display of wheels almost makes it look like a WAP5 to me

Very nice.

good initiative to have aircon cabs. but loco seems to have more ground clearance and it spoils the look of a WAP4 shell. livery is refreshing but nothing as good as the old WAG7 shell.

The shell is different from WAP 4. But I like this livery and the shape

This is an ex-LGD loco. Look at the hindhi stencil over the english one.
