Awesome ЁЯСМ тЩея╕П Crystal clear impressive Pics.
As we are progressing towards the 'Electric era' if we go slightly towards the memory down lane we could definitely recollect that once upon a time we had the ability to spot the imported Diesels. Every RF would have eagerly waited to spot these.

Perhaps who would have ever thought that these beautiful WDG-4's would vanish away without even leaving a trace of their original existence. EMD's for a cause have their own charisma, be it the design, the powerful honk and the melodious sound of the Jet engine which

totally sounds like a humming bee when quickly passes by with ease.

Seen here is The Bold and the Benevolence. Hubli WDG-4 12002 with container rake awaiting on Platform 1 for the clearance on a cloudy afternoon at Malkajgiri. This happens to be my only capture of this WDG-4. (06 August 2018)

Yeah that's so true. Excluding few routes and trains we aren't seeing them that frequently.

Yes I totally agree on that. The Guntur route electrification was the biggest changer at Secunderabad. Atleast we had ample number of trains via Guntur with EMD's and ALCO's which has been reduced now leaving behind these Diesels. Although we do have them for via Nanded and Kurnool however little less compared to Guntur.

Yeah so true! Most of them are P7's
Yaha bhi yehi haal hai. Diesel locos dikhte hi boht kam hai. Sirf kuch hi trains bachi hai jinko diesel link milta. Thode time mein unko bhi eloco mil jayega.

Ab to koi bhi train dekho Wap-7 hi dekhne ko milega.

    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...
