I regularly see the same trains with the Indian locomotive's on the way to Norfolk. The usually sit in the Lynchburg, Vs. yard for several days on a weekend. The head out Monday morning very early. They are gorgeous loco's!
Hey I'm Rail Fan from India...these are GE locomotives which are coming India...so can I use pics of your Videos in my CZcams videos after providing appropriate Credits
The Indian standard gauge is the broad 5 feet 6 inch and policy is to convert the other gauge tracks to that eventually except for some intra-city passenger and a couple of narrow gauge steam tourist lines. The locomotives going to them aren't be able to be driven over our tracks to the port and have to go on wagons.
I like the larger Indian gauge, since it is possible to have higher and wider loads with stability. On the other side of the argument are the higher costs and the larger curve radii needed for the larger gauge. Of course once there is one gauge in geographically connected areas, it is hard to switch over to a larger one unless there is a mixed gauge system as in India or Australia where whenever there is an opportunity to replace a narrow gauge, it occurs.
Nice! I’ll tell you even more information about this train. They left the Erie GE Plant on a local pulled by the New York Central Heritage Unit, which took them to Conneaut Ohio. Then, they took 15M to Conway and then ended up on this train.
Norfolk Southern, likely a Dash 9, 4,440 hp. Something going by on the NS tracks that I can hear 1/2 mile from me as I type, headed north as no horn yet. Probably same engine(s) with a bunch of double stacks or mixed freight. Their rebuild shops at Juniata PA are legend, they do it all.
I thought , Tejas Express is driven by these type locomotives. Thanks you for extreme knowledge sharing and pointing me my mistake very bluntly . I am lucky that I got reply from such high class + clever + not foolish + knowledgeable person.
Yep, me too, headed to both sides of the trax just south of South End Plaza to get a look/pic but they were mostly behind double stacks. Remember the bright colors and flat fronts. There were a few dozen of them.
I think most folks over here don't really care about railroads that much, it's all cars and air travel. Thank you for your nice intro vids to the Shimla-Kalka narrow gauge, I particularly liked the multi-arch bridge views. I work in IT with many folks from Asia and more than a few miss home a lot.
Here's a better view of same or similar train, a few dozen more to be exported then production moves to Bihar India. They may not be same gauge as US tracks so maybe that is why they are carried. czcams.com/video/vOrocrcPjQY/video.html
john maloney look it up the Indian wagons will be manufactured in India. That was the part of the contract that manufacturing moves to India. There is not going to be any future orders from the U.S. so all the foreign orders will be made from the India factory.
Scrumptious Model Trains Not really, bc the company that made them is based in the US, so they made them where they're based and then sold them, which required them to go to India.
That's not what companies usually do these days, they usually manufacture them in or near the country of destination. And that still doesn't change the irony that the u.s. is making locomotives that they will never use.
Scrumptious Model Trains Actually, it is. They produce their product where they have factories/workshops/whatever and then ship them to the customer. That's how business has always worked and the way it still works. There is no irony in that, because they have no affiliation with the government of the US.
love to see Indian locomotive WDG -4G In Horsehoe Curve!!!thanks for share this great footage!!!

Nice catch of 10 new GE export locomotives at an iconic location! Reminds me of the time when NS shipped class 70s for the UK!

Lewis Doherty these locomotive had standard guage trucks while being tested and we're later switched to broad guage for export
Yeah, that makes sense.
Lewis Doherty so what's better the gauge we have in India or the one's you have in the US? What's the difference?
I like the larger Indian gauge, since it is possible to have higher and wider loads with stability.

Lewis Doherty in India , trains runs on broad gauge . 5ft 6inch.
I think around 40 will be exported. Rest will be manufactured in India. Total 1k locomotives will be built, 300 having 6000hp and 700 having 4500hp
Nice! I’ll tell you even more information about this train. They left the Erie GE Plant on a local pulled by the New York Central Heritage Unit, which took them to Conneaut Ohio. Then, they took 15M to Conway and then ended up on this train.
Excellent capture!
Nice. They r coming to India. Nice capture. God Bless You Always
This locomotives will be exported to our country . Brand new GE locomotives . AWSOME CAPTURE .
Great catch! Also, this is the first and only train I've seen go through Horseshoe Curve led by only one engine, lol

That's a great scene!
Single engine pulling so much load... What is the power of that black engine
How is that "so much load"? It's only 20 cars and a quarter of them are just idler flats.

Fantastic
Superb video ❤️
Great video. I like
Awesome bro 🤗🤗😍😍
nice
I saw those european locomotives in lynchburg.
Awesome capture of the horse shoe curve and our locos are also looks so good...
India don't need to export due to politics its happening we are more capable
If I lived here this would be major super
Woah
What is the need of this ? We already use electric right ?
Nice paint jobs, very snazzy.
Great Catch!
WDG 4G for Indian Railway, these are dual cab locomotive.
What!!!!!!...no grab rails on the roofs.
Check them out in 6 months,they won’t look like that.
Nice catch Marc
It's the wdg4g of Indian railways
Some of the trains in India are very very dirty though. I hope they don’t ruin these nice locomotives.
Nice catch!!
Is it snowing?
Wow 😮
Great !!! These engines will come to India . India is using this engine high speed express trains.
Not express Trains, Goods trains on DFC
Some people I don't know why foolishly cry even when they don't know anything. You r one of them @Das
I thought , Tejas Express is driven by these type locomotives. Thanks you for extreme knowledge sharing and pointing me my mistake very bluntly . I am lucky that I got reply from such high class + clever + not foolish + knowledgeable person.
PRADEEP RAI thank you for your great behavior reply . You are such a good and true human being.
Brother this is WAG 4G loco. G for Goods
they are made for india
Hey which is it where u shot this video....really a beautiful place
Horseshoe Curve. Altoona PA
NS6677 so u live there?
Spotted last night April 14 2018 in the Vardo yard in Hagerstown MD
Yep, me too, headed to both sides of the trax just south of South End Plaza to get a look/pic but they were mostly behind double stacks. Remember the bright colors and flat fronts. There were a few dozen of them.
people in your country are so ecstatic about railways. and here very few people gives a concern to the trains. wish I could live with you people

Knew they couldnt be for domestic use, much too colourful.
will that the only time this locomotives will see the horse shoe curve.
Yes, as they are going overseas to India.
i have ultra surprise is: train of india
Yeah as already noted in the main title......
Super
What is funny, is that in India those locomotives will be moving double stack trains.
Paul Jensen not really
Why is that funny? Isnt it obvious?
Cool
anyone have any close-ups of the engines? i saw them rolling through Altoona but didn't have a chance to stop and take some
pics
Odyssey Slipways I have some
Guys please clear me I have some little bit confusion regarding this are India export this engine or we import from foreign company..?
prince sahni India has ordered these locos
Can I use this video on my channel I will give credits
Railfan Rohan what do you mean by “use it”. And give credits? My name is on the video.
NS6677 like reupload it on my channel
Railfan Rohan I want credit. Even though my watermark is on it. Other than that I don’t see a problem.
NS6677 ok
these foreign units will be made in texas soon as erie is being closed
john maloney look it up the Indian wagons will be manufactured in India. That was the part of the contract that manufacturing moves to India. There is not going to be any future orders from the U.S. so all the foreign orders will be made from the India factory.
john maloney see for yourself
czcams.com/video/7mo5twjglpo/video.html
The first 100 will be made in the US. The remaining 1100 in India.
Make in india kaha hai ab ..
QTECH first 100 imported. Next 1100 made in India. That's the contract.
Ironic that these things might have been manufactured in the united states however the united states will never use them.
Scrumptious Model Trains
Not really, bc the company that made them is based in the US, so they made them where they're based and then sold them, which required them to go to India.
That's not what companies usually do these days, they usually manufacture them in or near the country of destination. And that still doesn't change the irony that the u.s. is making locomotives that they will never use.
Erm, exporting is more prevalent now than ever before. Don't see any irony in this, it's business.
Scrumptious Model Trains
Actually, it is. They produce their product where they have factories/workshops/whatever and then ship them to the customer. That's how business has always worked and the way it still works. There is no irony in that, because they have no affiliation with the government of the US.
The U.s. is running an almost 500 billion dollar trade deficit.
Does anyone know what model they are?
superROTV WDG4G
Es43acmi
it's not Indian train
The locos on that train are for India.
MODI effect
Superb
