Bharat, this livery was unique to the whole ER. Even MGS (under ER) shed's WAM-4/WAG-5 locos had the same livery. Posted by Anamitra Ghatak on 2009 Feb 04 06:24:56 +0000 |

How come the loco looks so clean? Is the pic original or has something been done to give this colour? Posted by Vimalakar N C on 2009 Feb 04 02:57:03 +0000 |

This confirms my comment on your earlier pic. The 202xx series were all WAM1's and this livery was unique to ER, possibly Asansol shed. Posted by Bharat Vohra on 2009 Feb 03 16:10:46 +0000 |
Sachin bhai, this BBM/1 classification is based on the french classification for this class. These later became the WAG 1 series loco. They were originally imported from SNCF, france. Note the european style buffer and side window. You can see a pic of this loco here:
