25 Kv AC overhead electrification work is currently in progress at Palam Station on the Delhi-Rewari line on Nov. 26, 2018. Seen in my video is the Bhagat ki Kothi based WDP4D diesel electric locomotive #40146 hauling the Ahmedabad bound Ashram Express with its rake of LHB cars. Linke Hofmann Busch (LHB) coaches are the passenger coaches of Indian Railways that have been developed by Linke-Hofmann-Busch of Germany (renamed Alstom LHB GmbH in 1998).
The coaches are designed for an operating speed up to 160 km/h and could go up to 200 km/h, and have been tested for speeds up to 180 km/h. Post electrification, most trains on this route will be hauled by electric locomotives.
Also in my video, leakage of fresh water in two passenger cars from the toilet tanks can be seen after 28 seconds.
