Today Western Railway to run 1st power-saving train



Western Railway (WR) will run its first pure Alternating Current (AC) train on Christmas day.

Expected to save electricity, the train, which was manufactured by Integral Coach Factory in Chennai, has one major difference from the earlier trains. Unlike suburban trains in which the electric motors are in the second, fifth, eighth and eleventh coaches, this new AC train will have these motors in the first, fifth, eighth and twelfth coaches.

This change in the location of the electric motors, however, means that the first coach, which is a women’s compartment will get divided into two because of the motor being placed in between.
