SunnyA very beautiful & informative snap. Air Tanks & Auxilary Air Tanks, Wheel Axles & the Groves covered which will join to the groves of the electric motor & lastly Disc brake system. Posted by Guest on 2004 Jan 27 06:47:54 +0000 |

Harpal SinghThe technology used in this kind of Couplers is one of the best foolproof technology. Posted by Guest on 2004 Jan 16 20:50:35 +0000 |

Ashish VashishtI zoomed up the high res image and the coupler reads "Schaku" which is most likely the name of the German manufacturer. All I know about a Scharfenberg coupler is that it helps in automatic coupling. Posted by Guest on 2004 Jan 03 06:17:38 +0000 |

Ashish VashishtYes, there are instruction and announcements both in Hindi and English - on the stations as well in the trains. Posted by Guest on 2004 Jan 03 03:57:16 +0000 |

Ashish VashishtYes. The catenary maks is similar. Can anyone tell us differences? Thanks! Posted by Guest on 2003 Dec 26 04:45:58 +0000 |

SandeepSeems like the metor uses the same caternary arrangement as the Indian railways. Posted by Guest on 2003 Dec 26 00:23:52 +0000 |

A.V.Shenoy/ajitshenoy@now-india.net.inI did not notice these wheels during my visit to see the prototype. I thought that the basic guidance is by the standard undercarriage being used on the rails. What is the exact purpose of these wheels? Posted by Guest on 2003 Dec 21 18:45:42 +0000 |

One can see the bag of the air suspension and regular tread brakes - not disk brakes.The disk shaped item on the left axle may be a tachogenerator to measure the wheel speed.
