Your post made go and do some Indian railway research! Indian loco type

of their own to railway enthusiasts but I can’t see them seeming modern and high
tech to the average passenger. Take the
WDP-4 that you made a
model of, what is with those side
windows! (also how do they manage to see past that huge silencer(?) when running
‘wrong’ way) Anyway, looking foward to more pics.

PS does each shed have its own livery for each loco class?
