A Light Engine is a railway locomotive running with no vehicles attached.

The fourth India-built X-Class metre gauge oil fired steam engine for Nilgirri Mountain Railway, 37399-X, rolls to the Loco Shed at Coonoor, on completion of its run from the foothills at Mettupalayam, hauling a passenger train. This oil fired steam engine was built at Golden Rock Workshop of the Railways, and entered service in April 2014. A new shed under construction to house the YDM-4 diesel locomotive can also be seen in my video.
