The Indian locomotive class WDM-2 is a class of diesel–electric locomotive that was developed in 1962 by American Locomotive Company (ALCO) for Indian Railways. The model name stands for broad gauge (W) , Diesel (D), Mixed traffic (M) engine, 2nd generation (2).
The decision to halt "Train Simulator 2.0" was made some time ago and was based on a long, hard and difficult look at our business objectives and product offerings. We remain focused on the simulations category with successful, platform-driving franchises such as "Microsoft Flight Simulator." [31] On January 19, 2007, Microsoft announced the ...
The locomotive is being jointly developed by Alstom and the Indian Railways, and is the first Indian Railways locomotive that has a power output greater than 10,000 horsepower. With a power output of 12,000 hp, it is twice as powerful as its immediate predecessor, WAG 9, and is one of the most powerful freight locomotives in the world. [16] [2 ...
The Indian locomotive class WCAM-1 was a class of dual-voltage (25 kV AC and 1.5 kV DC) electric locomotives that was developed in 1973 by Chittaranjan Locomotive Works for Indian Railways.

As a result, CR had a tough time in maintaining train schedules, which led to the demand for a locomotive similar to the WCAM-2/2P, which was already successful in the Western Railways. Thus the WCAM-3 was introduced along with the WCAG-1, with more power and traction. The locomotive class was jointly developed by RDSO and BHEL in 1997.
The locomotive features self diagnostics control using EM2000 onboard microprocessor which was a new technology for Indian Railways back then. Unlike the Co-Co wheel arrangement featured on most locomotives, including its freight hauling variant, WDG-4 , this loco has a Bo1-1Bo wheel arrangement meaning that it has two powered and one unpowered ...
