Yes doc, those are the DBR's. A question: What purpose do the red-yellow stripes serve? Is it just to keep away rust or is it meant for style? The P4 looks much healthier and powerful. Good job CLW. Nice picture mamu!

Are those mesh-like creatures on top DBRs? Yes, Alok, the overall finish quality has improved quite dramatically. Looks like WAP-5 has a positive effect on WAP-4 locos in many ways!

seems like the pantograph has been changed to the normal ones seens in the old WAP4s..

The boggies of WAP6 is the same as the one seen in WDP2/WDP3A.

This is the Nanded bound Sachkand express and even I was stumped when I saw this with LDH markings!! No idea when the transfers happened. Need to check out with the GZB guys!!

Hey Sid, when did 22691 get transferred?? It was a GZB loco when it hauled my 1078 from NDLS to MMR early Sept. This P4 has the P7/G9 style cab profile, and is a STATIC CONVERTOR fitted MICROPROCESOR CONTROLLED loco.

Btw, which train is it hauling in this pic??

Strange that the red marker lamps are on while the loco is rolling forwards!
