Great Photo!!! Nice to see WCAM3 running in AC mode on Mumbai-Pune line. An era of WCG2s is over. But soon same will happen with WCAM1/2/3 also after Mumbai region is converted to AC as these Loocs are on lease.

Ought to be the DQ - though running late. Notice the mismatched GSRD/SLR.
@Aniket, WCAM1 was never on lease. WCAM2/3 were, but not anymore.

Thanks Kharad for Information. I am very happy to hear that WCAM2/3s are not on lease anymore. Now CR and WR will continue with them after DC-AC conversion and we will not miss these locos.
