Last Two are the Originals. The other 6 are Brakers... 2 sets of 3 joined together to get all down the Ghats simultaneously apart from playing their role due to the excessive load n length of the freighter.
@@naturailclicks7963 I did not get it. 'originals' means pantograph is down, then how they are able to give traction? or breakers are the ones giving traction as well, and since the train is climbing downhill, no locomotive at the tail end?
Twin Locos with Freighter.. but 2 sets of Triplets (Total 6) used as Brakers, attached to the Front of a Train, when getting down the Ghats with a SuperLoaded Rake.
The Last Two are the Main Locos which play no role.. the leading 6 are Brakers with Their own Ghat or Mountain LPs... (3 sets of Two MUed locos or Two sets of Triple MUed locos) which are pressed into service for Psngr trains 22 coaches or more and for heavy loaded Freights when coming downhill. Hence the original locos and LPs 'take a Break!'
You are perfectly correct.. These were 2 sets of Brakers, with 3 in each consist, attached to the Twin Leading Locos thus totalling 8... The original locos are often Dead or Inactive, as the Brakers are in charge when downhill, unlike when Banking Uphill. Certainly no Offence taken, buddy.
These are not heavy cargo. These are very valuable cargo, probably defence cargo. So six engines are there and those two are standby. In case one engine fail, then that will take over. Anyway never seen more than five engines at one train.
Usually Defence Cargo wud not be Unmarked or Unescorted. However, when coming downhill with very heavy loads, or if a train is beyond 21 coaches, Brakers are attached to the original locos in front and detached at base again, following which the original takes charge n departs. Seen here are 2 sets of Brakers (with 3 locos each) attached to the Original Twin Locos.
Yeh engine sab Brake lagane ke liye hai. Pahar ke upar se jab niche Jane ke samay jyada load hone pe Braker engine lagaya jaata hai. Waise he Niche se pahar chadne par bhi 4,5 engine lagaya jaata hai.
When coming down the Ghats, as is seen here, these act as Brakers, for coaches or freighters beyond a particular length or load. Also, they are often brought down together to save seperate runnings n time.
I counted 40 wagons, must be 'a super loaded train'.
46 count again
Only 6 locomotives are useful because last 2 locomotive's pentograph is down.

@@joshihemant2568 A cable is used to couple Locomotives.... Pantograph down....that doesn't means loco is not active.
@@vanshsinghai8990 Thank you, an interesting information, a useful 'gyaan' to me.
Only 5 locos are operable using the MU cable so only 5 locos at a time
Can express train or a passenger trin can need a breaker while coming down from the ghats?(like thal and bhor).
No. But all trains have a compulsory brake testing halts three times in the ghats.
@@mehmoodsayed oh thanks!!
Why 8 locos to freight?

Last two engines' pantograph not up. Idling ?

Don't mind them, they're taking a rest for their next duty 😆
@0:22 The last two locos are dead locomotives. Hence we can say that it is being hauled by 6 locos. Just a minor correction. No hard feelings 😊

Most of those locos are carried back to its shed…they are not active…those are banker locos
Some off the loco have there photograph down it seems they were parked on same loop

Bankers ki Fauj 😋😋

NICE CAPTURE
Bankers are parked on the same line.
Exactly
Superb
Ek locomotive 40 to 50 load dabba ko aram se khich sakta hai. to phir yaha 8 locomotive kyon diya gaya hai kripya mujhe detail me bataaye

Last ke 2 engines ke pentograph down h
Kay hai ye ithe electric loco malgadi ko awesome
Mayur Rf these are bankers.. they push trains up to lonavala from karjat

Wow
7th and 8th loco are dummy... Not raised pantograph at all. 😂
