Hi Members,

I've been observing for the past fortnight that all the Mumbai - Pune Intercity trains (Indrayani, Intercity, Deccan Express, Deccan Queen, Sinhagad and Pragati) are getting WCAM3/WCAM 2 and it seems like WAP-7 isn't allotted anymore to these trains.

members are requested to comment on your observations.
We may then update the locos on the timeline to WCAM3/WCAM2 on the basis of your inputs.

Hello everyone, hope you are doing well,

To this I just want to bring up some things from my side. I don't know if I am right here but I would love to understand where I am wrong .
We see there are shortages in CR for wap7 locos, yet we see WAP7 locos allotment to railway boards dearest sheds like GZB and

BRC. Despite of those sheds having WAP5 and fellow sheds of same zones having WAP4.

In this case KYN has WAP7's and the older WCAM's. WR has dumped their WCAM2's to CR and are happy. They send all their non hog WAP7 to TKD and got Hog WAP7 from them in return. Majority of CR trains that runs outside Mumbai Pune section are run with locos from BZA, LGD, BRC, GZB, RPM. Yes I have seen KYN WAP7 as offlinks to trains from other zones too. But not as doninent as WR trains running with majority of BRC WAP7, NFR trains run with home diesels SGUJ WDP's. SCR trains with home alcos MLY WDM, WDG.

Central railways is somewhere getting neglected I feel, no new WAP7 allotments despite of routes electrified recently. CR is transferring locos internally fro KYN, AJNI to PUNE. In the last batch of WAP7 produced, only 1 WAP7 was alloted to AJNI, while BRC is enjoying a bunch load of WAP7's.

No offense to WR fans out there guys, but like I said I may be wrong and I would love to understand what's wrong with my saying. For now this is what I believe.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
