The class entered service in 1999. Further construction has been under license in India by the Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW); more than 60 additional locomotives have been built as of 2006.They are numbered from #12001 upward. A similar type, the EMD GT46PAC, has also been produced for passenger service in India. As of 2007, EMD and DLW have begun building GT46Ace's using IGBT technology to replace the older gate turn-off thyristor technology. Newer editions with 4,500 hp (3,400 kW) have been produced. Over 1,000 WDG-4 locomotives are currently in operation. HISTORY :- WDG4: first started operations in 1999 with the numbering starting from 12001 (this loco can still be seen in a splendid condition and is homed at the parent shed of Hubli) Hubli Diesel Locomotive Shed has been operational since 1999, and it houses the maximum number of WDG-4s from 12001-12064, 12067-12153, 12156, 12169, 12189, 12227, 12276, 12311–12313, 12325, 12326. The original WDG-4s from 12001–12021 were imported and later on DLW started manufacturing it indigenously. With six traction motors, this locomotive has the capability of touching 105 km/h (65 mph) with a fully loaded freight train of 58 wagons. The locomotive has been praised for its ability to work smoothly in regions with massive gradients, especially in the (Braganza Ghats) and the Subrahmanya ghats having a gradient of 1:37 and 1:50 respectively. CONVERSION TO ELECTRIC TRACTION :- In November 2018, Diesel Locomotive Works , Research Design and Standards Organisation designed and produced a new twin section 12,000HP (8,950 kW) electric locomotive.It has been converted from WDG-4 class diesel locomotive to a new class of Electric locomotive WAG-11.Only 3 units has been produced till now and all are in trials with RDSO.Sheds are yet to be given. *********************************************************** #WDG4 #TrainTuber #WDG4Twins #WDG4inAction #Ponmalai #Tiruchirapalli #FreightTrains #Goods #Train #SouthernRailways #IndianRailways *********************************************************** Follow Us in Instagram 😊 :- (@train_tuber) :- 👇 https://instagram.com/train_tuber?igshid=1jmt8xm5evhks Subscribe to Train Tuber , It's Free 😊 /channel/UC-4Cy0ARQ12kLFqkKUhLL6A *********************************************************** Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of The Copyright Act 1976 Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976,Allowence is made for "Fair Use" for purposes Such as Criticism, Commenting,News Reporting,Teaching, Scholarship and Research.Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might Otherwise be infringing.
