@@ariprasadmukundan9890 2 stroke engine are not less polluting but more. It is just that ALCOs are old that is why they pollute more. The newer less polluting GE WDG4G are 4 stroke.
EMD is a silent beast it is first loco capable to go over 100 mph It outperforms great ALCO locos. Speed , noise, traction and acceleration . Personally I like single cab EMD. EMD + frieght car is great combo ALCO + ICF Cars is also great sight.
Nice compilation, especially the animation......btw those 2 WDP-4Ds were new, hence they were MUed for testing purposes(if one fails mid-way, the other can take over).
This is a nice info and a story of WDP/WDG-4s but why did you extend the time of the vid 9:02 to 10:02? Anyway, I'm not complaining here. I was also thinking of doing this content too. But I never get time to do it. But maybe I will do some for myself too.
Thanks... originally I had planned a rounded 10 min time including the end cards... 9.30 of main Video and 30 sec for the end cards. But the final cut came to 9:02 only.
Bro You forgot to mention one important thing in this locomotive. Like WAP 5 and 7 the EMD WDP4 (Passenger locomotives) Also support HOG (Head On Generation) are enabled in Tughlakabad Shed Locomotives
Loved the video. Thanks for sharing information about these giants. I just love their horn as well as engine sounds. Like the way you mentioned in the last, once I also saw some 4 WDP/G 4s on a ride from Kozhikode to Coimbatore.... loved the ride
With India going 100% electric in a few years, the EMD diesel locos will be phased out. Some may be exported to Bangladesh and others will be converted to electric traction.
The EMDs were designed for MU’d operations where the long hood forward would never have come into play. In India where the locos are used as single units, the LHF visibility became a problem. IR has addressed this by adding cabs at both ends…In Europe, where single units are prevalent, EMD supplied twin cab units…
I love WDP4D AND WDG4 BOTH BECOZ OF ITS HORSPOWER,SOUND,POWER,DUALCABS AND THE LAST ENGINE SOUND ITS AWESOME WDP4 IS 1st locomotive on my favorite locomotives 😆💗😊😊😊
Apologies for my previous comment. Actually I noticed the same at Igatpuri to Kasara route. But I just came to know from others comment that due to testing purpose 2nd engine was attached with the 1st one.
Really good explanation of these locomotives, I learned quite a lot from this! What really interested me was the early EMD competitor with ALCO being preserved at the National Railway Museum, and the issues of running such a long locomotive with the long hood forward - EMD makes locos like that for use here in the states, where it is common to see two or three leading a train, but it definitely makes sense why some of the WDP4s had the second cab added. Good motion graphics as well!
Yes the long hoods can be a hassle here in India because at least in the case of passenger trains, locomotive are not assigned in Multiple Unit configuration.
My one peeve is, Indian railways hasn't invested in loco reversers at major locations which could reversed the loco so that loco would run with front cab /short hood ahead. Many times accidents have happened due to misjudgement and miscalculations done due to loco being driven with long hood ahead.
You mean “railway turntable”. In the age of steam, IR had railway turntables. In fact they were quite common. The advent of diesel and electrics reduced IR’ need for turntables and have been phased out.
That’s a good question… I never thought to research this. Will chek this out. But since EMD and GE are established locomotive manufacturers, I am assuming they must be building their own traction motors
Apurvaji...I have seen your pics and read your trip reports on so many trains and locomotives on IRFCA. I m a big fan and so happy that you took the time to see my video 😊
Even we can see nowadays that the railway industry were in the path of getting fully electrified in an objective of retiring the diesel engines, which is a great initiative,But still indian people loves the diesel locomotives very far... Even I am one of them who loves it but also accepts that development is an crucial point.. Well, I appreciate your efforts for such a explanation brother. ☺☺
Electrification is the right direction… but IR may retain some diesels for (1) international connections with Bangladesh and even Pak; (2) for strategic purposes in times of war
Excellent. Now finally EMD locomotives production Has been stopped in India. In upcoming days we will See more electric locomotives and WDG-4G and WDG-6G (GE) Diesel locomotives. Below I mentioned last Emd locomotives Built by Diesel locomotive works Varanasi (DLW) in India 1) Loco No 12999 Last WDG-4 of 12xxx series 2) Loco No 70191 last WDG-4. 3) Loco No 20103 last WDP-4. 4) Loco No 40085 last WDP-4B . 5) Loco No 40608 last WDP-4D. 6) Loco No 70882 last WDG-4D. 7) Loco No 50007 last WDG-5
The heat mentioned at 6:30 is due to Resistors in the dynamic brake grid and not from the prime mover. The Diesel engine will produce heat as well as smoke quite independent of the resistors
I hope Indian railways don't convert all EMDs to electric. Personally I would love to see few EMD-hauled versions of some trains run maybe once a month. A heritage special . It would be a great thing for railfans.
Although I am well versed in India loco story, this video nevertheless provided a fresh perspective in a very informative manner. Kudos to your effort. This is my first video watched on your channel, but henceforth won’t be the last.
As you said Why multi loco is used for Kochuveli express because After a major over hauling of engine it will be kept under trial and thoroughly monitored by the concern Shed for 5000 kms to avoid enroute failures and detention, Punctuality losses
A twin unit WDG6G will have the same max power as a WAG-12. The WAG 12 has a tractive effort of 785 KN. I do not have information on the tractive effort of thr WDG6G. The loco is still in trials. It is difficult to say how a twin MU’d WDG6G will perform compared to the WAG 12
This is an American design. American locomotives are almost always used in multiple unit configuration. Therefore a single cab is provided in each unit. In multiple unit configuration, a cab will always be present at each end of the loco multiple unit set
7:42. No train from Kochuveli runs on the Yelahanka line you genius! It's the Kondaveedu Express and the number is 17211, not 16316. Completely misinformed. Mention video credits to the original videographers! This is bad!!

It's sounds like fighter jet engine
@@mainymann5695 yes. True
WDP 4 and i believe are WAG 11 currently in trial

The fact u r saying is applicable for conventional 2 stroke petrol engines, not for 2 stroke diesel Engines.
Great job..being a junior engineer in Indian railways i appreciate ur efforts for this video..commendable job bro
Thank you for your kind appreciation of my efforts. It means a lot...
But nothing can beat the look design and chugging of an ALCO. They are majestic in appearance too.
😊
My fav models ❤️❤️
Both WDP4 and WDG4
The sound of emds are like jet engines
If Diesels disappear, there will be a crisis to both EMD and alco lovers
The WDP4 and WDG4 may stay as converted electric locos... fingers crossed... and they will probably remain for the trans-Bangladesh run to Agartala
Today just finished my training in diesel locomotives.. great job done.. well explained
Congratulations on completion of your training…
Good! The era of ALCOs & EMD is superb and sweet memories for rail lovers
Hats-off to EMD locos - G R sharma
EMD is a silent beast it is first loco capable to go over 100 mph
It outperforms great ALCO locos. Speed , noise, traction and acceleration .
Personally I like single cab EMD. EMD + frieght car is great combo
ALCO + ICF Cars is also great sight.
Yes… but the WDP3A and WDM3D are also capable of 100 mph
I love the EMD 710. It powers some of my favorite locomotives we have in america, like the SD70’s and F59PHi’s. It has a nice idling sound too.
Nice compilation, especially the animation......btw those 2 WDP-4Ds were new, hence they were MUed for testing purposes(if one fails mid-way, the other can take over).
It took three long years to get the answer for those two WDP4Ds. Thanks for this update 😊
Yeah. Even KJM did the same thing
Last shot was great
Thanks 😊
Why there is a whinning sound, when the dynamic brake is applied? I've heard in most of the EMD cab ride videos.
The way you explain is the best.. please do more videos and upload frequently.
Thank you Emmanuvel....
Good information
Thanks

Excellent video
Very nice explanation of EMDS
IN MY OPINION EMD SHOULD BE USED
INTEAD OF DUAL ELECTRIC DIESEL LOCOS
With India going 100% electric in a few years, the EMD diesel locos will be phased out. Some may be exported to Bangladesh and others will be converted to electric traction.
EMD makes dual modes like the popular Swedish-American built AEM-7
Good explanation
wdg4 is very power ful locomotive
Yes it is…
Excellent presentation bro.. keep up the good work😊
Thanks 😊
Very good explanation . Cheers from Australia .
Thanks Jude 😊
Visit the ADI - VG route of Gujarat. U will catch WDG5 Locomotives there

Thank you Pallas... I am just a rail fan 😊
My one peeve is, Indian railways hasn't invested in loco reversers at major locations which could reversed the loco so that loco would run with front cab /short hood ahead.
Many times accidents have happened due to misjudgement and miscalculations done due to loco being driven with long hood ahead.
You mean “railway turntable”. In the age of steam, IR had railway turntables. In fact they were quite common. The advent of diesel and electrics reduced IR’ need for turntables and have been phased out.

Changes cannot be avoided but we Railfans do miss the Chugging and Screaming.
Sir which traction motors used in emd Alstom or hitachi
That’s a good question… I never thought to research this. Will chek this out. But since EMD and GE are established locomotive manufacturers, I am assuming they must be building their own traction motors
Running of two WDP4 locos (40271 and 40381) for a slow train was probably for running-in or proving reliability of the newer 40381.
Yes you are right

6:30 so it releases heat, does that mean it doesn’t relase smoke like Alco or you meant both smoke and heat same?

Two things are made me a die hard fan of emd is the jet engine sound & their horn
Oh, and also beyond 130 kmph speed
Yes... these locos have character
@@TheTrainStory i have a request, can you make a video on wdg4G & 6G
2 locomotive fr non superfast or small trains bcoz one of the locomotive (new) is on commission mode (testing mode)
The sound of turbo charger in WDP 4D is music to the ears
Tell me why 2 WDP4D in non super fast train
As many in the comments have said... one of the locomotives was undergoing testing
Enjoyed every bit of the video going through the technicality you surpassed anybody....the last bit of dual Loco could be test runs
Yes many viewers updated that the second loco was in testing. Thanks for appreciating the efforts put in. It means a lot.
Sir, is IR going ahead on converting WDP 4 to WDAP 5 ?
There was 2 engine on that non super fast train as because the train might cross the western ghat. Anyway nice video along with informative details.
WDP-4D go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR-
WDM 4 still remains the speediest in freights service of IR as it is directly imported from 🇺🇸
WDM4 has been retired by IR. In its day it was indeed a fast and advanced locomotive
Yes right that if GM agreed to share technical aspects to IR then it was the PRIMARY MAIN LINE DIESEL LOCO INSTEAD OF ALCO DL560 ie WDM 2
Make a video on WDAP 5
Please see here -> ua-cam.com/video/zOuhGw-7Nrw/v-deo.html
