be an MG shed for YDM-4 locos; those were transferred to Lumding. The shed is located within the Guwahati Goods Yard, about 5km east of Guwahati (GHY) station towards Lumding. Locos fitted Anti-Collision Device(ACD).
Lumding MG Diesel YDM-4 When the MG line from Guwahati to Lumding / Tinsukia / Dibrugarh was converted to BG, the Lumding - Badarpur (and beyond) section became isolated and at the same time the MG diesel shed at NGC was closed, with the locos from there transferred here. Easternmost shed of IR and has the highest remaining holding of YDM-4s. (10/13)
Badarpur MG Diesel trip shed YDM-4 Trip shed only. Locos home at Lumding.
Siliguri Diesel WDP-4, WDG-4, BG shed inaugurated in 3/07 with WDP-4 and WDG-4 locos transferred from Hubli. Also homes the famous WDP-4 #20012, "Baaz". Current (10/13) holding 160+ locos.
PS. It is interesting to note that although Malda is the HQ of a division under ER, the diesel loco shed there is under the jurisdiction of NFR.
