- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- The WAM4 is the longest standing electric locomotive plying on Indian Railways, currently in its fourth decade of active service. These highly successful and versatile locomotives, capable of hauling both passengers and freights were widely built by the Chittaranjan Locomotive Works till 1997. Rated at 3,850 horsepower, these locomotives generally are able to hit 110 kmph with 24 coach rakes. From an aesthetic point of view, WAM4s, along with diesels, have the widest varieties of liveries amongst locomotives plying on the Indian Railways, with each shed having its trademark livery. From the light red of Itarsi, to the white and cream of Tata, and the blue and cream of Bhusaval, these locomotives make for a delightful and refreshing sight on the Indian Railways.
This compilation is a humble tribute to these beauties. Included here are WAM4s belonging to the Itarsi, Bhusaval, Visakhapatnam, Tatanagar, Arakkonam, Mughal Sarai, Vijayawada, Howrah, Asansol and Bhilai sheds, spotted from train journeys in Eastern, South Eastern, East Central, West Central, Southern, and South Central Railways. Some superstars are the high speed crossings of the Bhubaneshwar Jan Shatabdi (Visakhapatnam WAM4), Kalinga Utkal Express (Tata WAM4), Asansol Sealdah Intercity Express (Howrah WAM4) and the Chennai Bangalore Shatabdi Express (Arakkonam WAM4).

You never spotted a Bhilai WAM4? Great compilation though. My favorite livery is of Vijayawada one
Is WAM 4 and WCAM 1 still in use in IR? ALso, what's the top speed that WAM 4 or WCAM 1 cannot go beyond?
