Removal of a Toilet from each Coach!

By -
Indian Railways have decided to remove a Tiolet from each coach in 40,000 coaches that are being redesigned under the Mission Retro Fitment. The reason to this is that in the old designed ICF coaches there is no specified place to keep food by the catering service therefore with this lack of space it was been kept infront of the Tiolet door which was seen unhygienic.To remove this situation of unhygiene a tiolet from each coach shall be removed so that food could be kept in the space freed.

Removal of 1 Toilet from each coach
This removal is not needed in the newly designed LHB coaches as it already has space for keeping food so it would still have 4 toilets.

Many of us in the rail fan community might be thinking – what are the features and specs of the locomotive. So let’s find it out. Nomenclature: W  – Wide/Broad Gauge D  – Diesel Powered G  – Goods load 4  – Class Type G  – GE (Manufacturer) The ES43ACmi (Indian Railways’ class – WDG4G) locomotive, painted in a distinctive red and yellow pattern, is the first of 1,000 diesel freight locomotives that GE Transportation will deliver to Indian Railways as part of a $2.5 billion order. The bright colors hold special meaning in India with red representing energy and yellow representing freshness. Before the mass production of locomotives at Marhowara (Bihar) few locomotives are been produced and tested in USA. This project comes under the  Make in India  initiative. The ES43ACmi( WDG4G ) locomotive is one of two models GE Transportation is building for Indian Railways as part of the order. It’s a dual-cab locomotive with a 4,500-horsepower engine. The second locomotive, model

About – Trainsets

In India we are familiar to only on system of trains that is a locomotive leading the coaches (I say it as  leading power system ). This system is neither safe,fast nor efficient. For the replacement of these few countries have introduced  Trainset System.  Trainset system train used in paris. What are Trainsets? Trainsets are just coaches having their own traction motors for each pair of wheels which are controlled by a controller system present in the first and/or last coach in the set. Why they are fast? It is quite simple to answer this. The individual traction motors makes the power distribution good so the momentum transfer from locomotive to coaches is not required hence the speed becomes good. Other features Good Acceleration :  Because they have individual traction motors they are good in acceleration. Safer than leading power system :  The change in momentum is negligible when train stops or starts so there is low probability of shocks as well they dera

Know about ‘First Ever’ solar powered DEMU!!

The solared power DEMU is going was been tested for it’s reliablity and power consuption in Jodhpur division (NWR).It would be running between Delhi and Farukhnagar. Indian Railways are in their way to use more and more of renewable resources to run their train.The solar powered DEMU consisting of 6 coaches with solar panel on it’s roofs. Last year, Northern Railways had fitted one coach of the Rewari-Sitapur passenger with solar panels. However, this would be the first DEMU (Diesel Electric Multiple Unit) broad gauge train, in which all coaches have solar panels, says Railways. Solar panel fitted coaches already run on narrow-gauge trains plying on Pathankot-Jogindernagar route in Kangra Valley section and Kalka-Shimla section. Rewari-Sitapur Passenger coach with solar panel. The solar DEMU have 6 coaches having 12 solar panel each on the roofs which are expected to generate 300W and 3.6KW per coach which are more than enough of power for running lights and fans. More
