I also saw the interiors of the loco! I was made an offer to travel in the loco up to Chinchwad or Lonavala, which I politely declined!

WCAM-3 is NOW converted to Full 25 KV AC.
1st seen in IR.......
I think now all WCAM will be converted to FULL 25kv AC so that they can be used with Trains from End to End.
One thing is clear the Conventional Locomotives(WAP-4,WAG-5,WAG-7,WCAM-3 etc) are on the brink of their Era so now IR use them in the Passenger Service as more
...
more...
as they can. Because in Goods Sector WAG-9 is enough to handle everything so Conventional Goods Loco i.e WAG-5,7 etc are now used more in Passenger service and many of them are converted to Passenger Loco.

Re# 1584283-5              
As per my discussions with staff, the AC converted WCAM-3 locos will be used only in Ghat Section (as bankers) as well as for Pune-BSL Exp and may be Pune-Mumbai Exp Trains. WR Staff has strictly said NO to any type of WCAMx locos on Pune-ADI Section. Also, IGP/MMR Staff has said NO to WCAM2/2P on KYN-KSRA-IGP-MMR Section! These constraints (for whatsoever reasons) has given opportunity to railfans at Pune to witness WAPx locos for variety of sheds coming from ADI side!

    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...
