[IRFCA] Inside Rajdhani Express Locomotive, Ultimate Cab Ride in WDP4D Engine

An inside view and an ultimate cab ride in Indian Railways Air Condition fitted Dual cab EMD locomotive [GT46PACe] hauling the Indians one of the premier train the Rajdhani Express.
Enjoy the EMD Loco Ride at full MPS of 110 KMPH.
===================================================
About EMD Locomotives
-----------------------------------------
The EMD GT46PAC is a passenger-hauling diesel-electric locomotive with AC electric transmission designed by General Motors Electro-Motive Division and built by both GM-EMD and under license by Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW) of Varanasi, India for Indian Railways as their classes WDP-4, WDP-4B and WDP-4D. The GT46PAC is a passenger version of the previous Indian Railways EMD GT46MAC freight locomotive. The locomotive has a 16 cylinder 710G3B diesel engine with a maximum speed of 904 RPM.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The WDP4D Locomotive:-
Newer editions with 4500 hp have been produced which have been named with the sub class WDP-4B /WDP-4D which have different traction control with six traction motors and are Co-Co bogie equipped (more similar to WDG-4), unlike the original which has a Bo-1-1-Bo arrangement with four traction motors. Due to some visibility hindrances faced by loco pilots in driving long hood front, the basic WDP-4B model has been modified to dual cab to eliminate any such possibility. The other features of the WDP-4B and the WDP-4D are the same. The newer cabs have slightly wider profiles to improve visibility & LCD instrument display.

Man continuously seeing the empty single track in front of u it is very easy to fall asleep. Hats of to these people.

[@krishshah2962]

that's why they continously honk so they don't sleep

[@lokeshbagul7411]

How would they know that when to change track??

[@krishshah2962]

[@rajdeepdutta209]

They can't see what's in front of them while they are sitting. They get their instructions through receiver and signals.

[@KuntalGhosh]

No its not easy. If the driver does not respond for 1min like change in throttle , brake or honk a warning signal from the aws will come on. If he does not acknowledge or press any button for next 30sec a beep will come on and if he does not acknowledge or do any changes to throttle , brake or honk the train will automatically apply emergency brake and throttle down to neutral. And record this in the onboard computer . The driver had to bring the train to a complete stop and reset the brakes and then restart the whole system.

[@tejiism]

Big salute to drivers who run trains so fast. We enjoy sound sleep during night journey but driver of train has to keep his hawk eyes on signal lights with full concentration.

ABSOLUTELY MARVELOUS!

[@akashramani6047]

I have always been fan of Indian railways since my childhood...i remember my elders or uncle asked me if you wanna be Engineer.. and i always said yes ..bcoz i thought engineer means person who drives train by sitting in engine... 🇮🇳❤️❤️😀😀😂

[@soumyabrataghoshdastidar8416]

In European countries a loco pilot is actually called an engineer. These people have technical background too... ITI, or Diploma in mechanical, electrical, electronics engineering. I am not sure if degree holders can apply too..

[@ironbutterfly12]

What is the salary of loco pilot in India?

[@sayantadeysarkar9191]

Same here bro... Exactly same thing ❤

[@vanshmalhotra121]

25k-40k per month in the beginning. after like 5yr will go upto 55-60k and then max is 86k@@ironbutterfly12

[@user-us4fl1ix2i]

Hats off to the loco pilots who provide us safe journey particularly in prestigious trains like Rajdhani . It's very difficult to constantly focus eyesight on railway track when the speed of the train is more than 100 kms during night.

[@abhisheksuman2959]

In our childhood I used to think that there must be a steering to control the train on track. I wondered how the driver would control his steering and move so perfectly on the track😋😂😂 theses memories make me laugh now.

[@akashbhoi.official]

[@abhisheksuman2959]

@@ar3k7 bruhh 🤣😂tq

[@prasadputrevu]

My father and uncles worked at Railways. Even my grandfather. Here are few myths that people get wrong! 1. Drivers don't have steering to move to a different track. There is something called RRI cabins and interlocking mechanisms that cabin masters and section masters set for each section. All tracks are divided into sections. 2. No they don't honk continuously to be awake. Did you see "W/L" boards all across?? on the right side? that is called whistle long. 3. There are also symbols like T/G, T/P to give a signal to the driver like the entire train has passed the bridge, the train has crossed a specific point. 4. Driver and Guard are in continuous touch. The driver makes a mistake that's it, the guard takes note of it. 5. Assistant Driver communicates with Driver and takes confirmation on signals. If the Driver fails to respond or confirm, Assistant should take over. Probably, Sr.Driver is having a problem. So many more facts in the Indian Railways. IT is a huge well-oiled department of India, should have been modernized to bullet trains.

[@explorewithharshi3375]

Thank you for this

[@youAinTfunnyLilBro]

great info

[@FosFate]

Bullet Trains are amazing, but not suited for Indian "market." They have much lower carrying capacity, which is the biggest upside of trains and also why Indian railways are praised so much. High Speed trains are a different case. The next logical step for us should be getting a vast network of HSR. Wih similar capacity and better speeds, they're much better than Bullet trains, and can go upwards to speeds of 275 (which will be a massive leap). There are plans to add a decently large network of HSR as early as 2025, but let's see how it pans out. Bullet Train may be implemented, in future (after having a decent HSR chain), but mostly only for certain trips (Delhi - Mumbai, Mumbai BLR, Delhi - Agra, etc/Neigboring State capitals).

[@RailwayWalaBhau]

Curiously I asked to motorman about all above information. Thank you for note here.

[@subhrajyotiroy]

Also section signaling. 2 yelow means it can be red or green at the next signal proceed cautiously , whereas 1 yellow means upcoming signal is definitely red

[@njpendse]

Very nice and elaborate video. Few things noticed. A) DMS or forward movement handle need to be brought in front of driver. It is at present sideways which will give him trouble and may have back ache problem in long run. B) For quite a long time drive has to hold DMS by two hands. I think this is different than Electric EMU. C) Lots of dirt accumulating in the front glass. There has to be a water spray as like cars. Dust also shows how dirty our environment. Video seems to be from North India rural area. Situation in cities may be worst. D) Cabin and ofcourse engine shakes a lot at 100 to 111. Indian Railways planning to increase the speed at 160 KMPH. Situation will be worst then. E) Cabin should be made sound proof. Driver will get annoyed at longer period.
