Very clean LGD WAP-4# 22606 taking rest at Mumbai Central. The locos behind LGD WAP-4 are BRC WAP-4# 22813, BL WCAM-1# 21845, BR
@Arzan: BRC WAP-4E is not a regular link for JP-MAS S/F, its regular link is an ED/RPM WAP-4 alongwith JP-CBE exp also while JP-MYS S/F gets LGD WAP-4 and JU-PURI usually gets ET WAP-4, all these 4 trains shares same slot between Nagpur and Jaipur.

Anamitra. There was a thread in the forum, of a circular from RB about the allotment of WAP5s to BRC. In that PDF, there was a clear mention of using ED/RPM WAP4s on the SWM BCT section for BCT JP express. I see it practically implemented today (ofcourse - offlink with LGD).

Anamitra, you are right, its an offlink today. RPM and ED WAP-4's are regular links for Chennai Jaipur Superfast. Along with BRC WAP-4E's, we will now be seeing GZB, RPM and ED WAP4 too. Today crimson red coloured GZB WAP-4# 22334 took charge of 12953 August Kranti Rajdhani. Just looking fabulous with LHB raj livery.

What is the loco link of Chennai Jaipur Superfast? Isn't it RPM/ED? If so, that train itself got an offlink.

Hemang Jani is travelling by 12955 today to Surat. LGD WAP4 22606 is the power.

One reason for the WCAM1's MPS of 100 kmph is its length - higher speeds causes it to vibrate. This was told to me by a railway official many years back.

Mumbai - DC to AC Conversion, February 5, 2012
Totally agree with Sachin and Akshay. Indeed it feels so weird; until the day of conversion it was WCAMx with all our fav trains. And suddenly, very next day entire landscape has changed. Feels I'm away from home..

Now, even ADI bound trains are getting WAPx. Goodbye WCAM1/2 for all the priceless memories, you will never be forgotten.. :)
