    wow, the trains in America are very big, even though the trains in India use a rail width of 1676mm

    • @ArchsStanton
      @ArchsStanton Год назад

      You can thank the provincial idiot East India Brits for that.
      For whatever reason Ramsay/Dalhousie thought that 1676mm was more "stable" for the South Asia environment *but at the same time decided that the loading gauge used in Britain would be fine for the same South Asia environment and thus damning South Asia to the restrictive British loading gauge.*
      Meanwhile the trains in Russia and China have MUCH more generous loading gauges because the Soviet Union imported a great many of their locomotives from the United States and so when the Soviet Union went on its great rail building projects from 1930 onward, they built their rail system to the large American loading gauge. AND, because China inherited japanese American built steam locomotives AND China imported a lot of Soviet American-based locomotives so when China went on its massive post-1949 rail building program (what little rail network China had pre-1949 was massively damaged during WWII), China, like the Soviet Union, built their rail network with large loading gauges to fit their American-based locomotives.

      These locomotives were made by America's General Motors Electro Motive Division. And their model no we're GM EMD GT46PAC or GM EMD GT46MAC.
      Where PAC is a passenger loco and MAC is a Goods loco.
      Here in India, Indian Railway renamed them as WDP4D or WDG4D. GT46PAC is called WDP4D and GT46MAC is called WDG4D. Where W stands for wide gauge or board gauge, D stands for Diesel traction or Diesel Motive power, and P stands for suitable for Passenger train and G stands for suitable for Goods train. The number 4 is the chronological number of the locomotive and the last letter D stands for Dual Cab version.

      The tracks have different gauges i.e Broader gauge ( 1676 mm compared to standard 1435mm ) . The Indian railway tracks requires a lower axle load against American tracks that can sustain high axle loads. The most notable distinguishing thing is fuel tank. American railways is predominantly freight and operates for long strech of routes with literally some places having nothing in between on flip side Indian railways doesn't require such big fuel tanks due to shorter trips and being passenger centric does not require continuous long stretches operation. Again the length of average indian train is shorter than that of American counterparts and thereby American locomotives are heavier and bulkier against comparatively lighter indian locomotive ( you can clearly see the axle load playing a significant part here too ).

    • @paharibrat2301

      ​@@schrodinger1811 There are dedicated freight corridors being built where the freight traffic will only run at higher speeds and access for having double decker containers - one stacked on top the other... so a single train will have double the containers going at an average speed of 60 kmph or more with very less stopping and no passenger trains are allowed on the freight corridors. Indian Railways being very a passenger centric passenger railway trains are given preference over freight due to which freight trains took double the time to reach the destinations. Now with dedicated freight corridors, delay in delivery of freight will be history.

    At first, I thought these were Train Engines were going to the US Native Indians for use by them - and that's why they have been painted the bright colors. Then I wondered why I hadn't heard of Indian Railways or what type of service they offered over Amtrack and such. I think I recall something called HIAWATHA line - but don't remember what it was. Anyway - the US INDIANS must have something really profitable going to afford these and I was quite glad about that. Then I read the description and then I understood these were for INDIA - not US NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS - and I was sad. Oh well - silly me.

      Surpurb until it derails and rolls with you in it and they have to peel you out like a sardine.. EMD is the better locomotive for this better insulated, smoother ride..they cost more but you get what you pay for.

    After the diesel ends in the world, the us will have to take a very great loss of diesel locomotives because majority of diesel locos are more in the us. The countries operating electric locomotives like India , Switzerland, China will only lose diesel locos but still they will keep on operating through electric locos. This is a future telling!
