The EMD (Electromotive Diesel ) Locomotives across the Indian Railways have a standard livery across all the Loco Sheds , the colors used are White-Blue for Passenger Class (as seen in the trail loco) and Cream-Turquoise for the Freight Class. These color schemes look pretty monotonous with more than a thousand of EMD's produced and running all across the network.
The Northeast Frontier Diesel Loco Shed Siliguri was the first shed to try out the Blue - Orange Color Scheme on few of their Passenger Class EMD WDP4 inspired by the Baaz Livery which was painted by Diesel Locomotive Workshop (DLW) at Varanasi on the one and only Fibre Glass cab WDP4 20012. (Note : Not all Locomotives are repainted in Orange- Blue)
Northern Railways Tughakabad / TKD Shed painted a few of their WDP4B EMD's to Red, the most famous one being WDP4B Prateek 40079.
South Western Railway Diesel Shed KJM / Krishnarajapuram has recently overhauled two of their Freight Class EMD's aka WDG4 to a new color scheme giving it a new look and feel which can be seen in the video.
The reason why its termed as the best overhaul is because the shed asked for suggestions from Train lovers in a common forum before painting their locomotive. KJM is probably the first shed to take livery suggestions from Rail fans which really makes us feel proud. We expect the shed to repaint more locomotives in the coming days and experiment new Color schemes that has been suggested similar to how ALCo's across various Diesel Shed's were given different color schemes.
Enjoy watching the newly overhauled EMD WDG4 12276 KJM / Krishnarajapuram in its new avtar along with the newly commissioned Dual cab EMD WDP4D 40306 in trail hauling a passenger service.
Location : Birur Junction , Karnataka, South Western Railways.
