There is small correction Ranganath. The leading locomotive is a Gooty WDG3A whereas the trailing one is a KJM WDG3A Shakti.

not a baldie.it had a flat control stand as in the wdm2c/3a's.if you notice all the loco's having the flat control stand(with a steering wheel for notches),have the drivers window on the opposite side to that of a loco with vertical control stand.

Was this loco a baldie ? The cab layout is reversed (driver's window on the left) - what sort of control stand did it have ?

Yes, I agree with Sandeep..Sorry about the confusion.
The first one is a regular WDG3A GY shed and the other is the KJM Shakthi

The locomotive in the front is the regular WDG3A that belongs to Gooty. The trailing loco is a Shakti that belngs to KJM Diesel Loco Shed.

If these are 'Shakthi' class WDG-3's there is a different liveried "Shakthi" as well. The livery will be that of Deep Red body with a great white streak in between, with "SHAKTHI" written in Blue. I saw it near Bgpt, but was unfortunately not fleet enough to take a pic.

Raghu meant they were coming from KJM.

No twin beam headlights? I thought the Shaktis were new-build locos that came out of DLW with twin beam lights.

Neil,the colour the loco bears is actually the DLW colour.the loco's get re-painted only once a year.this means that this loco will get re-painted into KJM colours only by this year end. moreover you can notice the engine head covers piled up on the foot board.
