@Karan: These days this beast has been regularly spotted on Amla-Itarsi section doing light jobs!

Rare indeed. Never expected to see her near ET!

This is the only DC loco class that got converted to pure AC operations. Post AC conversion, the performance should be on par with a WAG7.

In all probability, the loco has been sent for departmental duties in the CR ghat section south of Itarsi. That said, why would CR send an inferior loco to do duty on difficult terrain , especially when the nearest shed capable of handling this loco is 500km plus away?
