Description of wdg4 & wdp4 question bank. Of India Ministry of. Draft Maintenance Manual for Diesel Locomotives, English ( Draft). Draft Unified.

WDG4 numbered 12029 of diesel locomotive shed. (SGUJ) based WDG 4 locos The EMD GT46MAC is a -hauling with AC electric transmission built by in 1997–1998 for, where they are classed as WDG 4.

Thirteen were built by EMD as order #958647, and a further eight were exported in kit form and were assembled in India. The class entered service in 1999. Further construction has been under license in India by the; more than 60 additional locomotives have been built as of 2006. They are numbered from #12001 upward. A similar type, the, has also been produced for passenger service in India.

As of 2007, EMD and DLW have begun building GT46Ace's using technology to replace the older technology. Newer editions with 4,500 hp (3,400 kW) have been produced. Over 1,000 WDG-4 locomotives are currently in operation.

Contents. History WDG-4 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) Diesel Locomotive Shed has been operational since 1999, and it houses the maximum number of WDG-4s from 4, 3, 12156, 12169, 12189, 12227, 12276, 3, 12325, 12326.

The original WDG-4s from 1 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 of 1:37 and 1:50 respectively.

Indian Railways Maintenance Manual for Diesel Loco, popularly known as “White Manual”, was published in the year 1978. However, since then a number of technological advancem ents such as: MBCS, MCBG, PTLOC, Moatti filters, Centrifuges, Air dryers, RSB, Mechanically bonded radiator cores, AC motors, Bag type air intake filters, upgraded compressors, Stiffer Unit Camshafts, 251 + cylinder heads, Steel cap single bolt 11.75 CR pistons, high efficiency Turbochargers, etc, have been incorporated in the diesel loco design.

New variants on WDM2 platform v iz: WDM3A, WDG3A, WD M3D, WDM3F have been introdu ced in the last 15 years. High horse power locos viz: WDG4/4D WDP4/4B/4D, etc., based on advanced technology (AC-AC traction, Computer Controller Brakes, Microprocessor Control System) have been inducted in large numbers. One prototype WDG5 loco, upgraded version of WDG4, has also been manufactured. These HHP locos are going to be the main workhorse of Indian Railways. Maintenance requirement of these technologically advanced locos is different from old traditional ones. At the same time number of diesel locos homed in diesel sheds has gone up manifold which requires different organization set up.

Introduction of such advanced technology diesel locos on Indian Railways over a period of time has necessitated a paradigm shift in maintenance philosophy, retaining the essence of matured knowledge gained over years. This new look ‘White Manual’ shall supplement the long felt need of Transport Engineers of not only having a documented set of guidelines and instructions in consonance with the present scenario, but would also act as a harbinger in their pursuit of knowledge. Railway Board had nominated a committee of six officers for review of “White Manual” and laid down broad objectives. The revision and updation of t his manual has been done accordingly. Though a large number of officers and staff have contributed in revision of this Manual, we would like to express our special thanks to: Shri R. Vishnoi, Sr.EDS/MP, Shri P.C.
