There were reports that WAG12 was performing poorer than WAG9 in ghat sections in eastern part of India, but good to see here, if it is climbing western ghats then it can climb anywhere.
One thing to note here in Bhor Ghat the most of the work is done by Banker locomotives. Nearly 60 to 70% of train load is pushed by Bankers where the leading loco (here in this video WAG-12) is only pulling 30% load of the train.
@@PranitsRailworld I know its a ghat section and I understand the height is much more than normal ground level. What I'm saying is that the WAG12 is a 12000 hp loco, so it should be able to climb the gradients easily by itself...
@@SurekhatullochTulloch You clearly lack few concepts here. Banker don't have only 1 job of pushing trains. Bankers have one another objective of preventing the load on very first coupler of the train wagon. The coupler can break due the gradient. So to make sure that coupler dosen't get extra load, bankers are used to reduce the load on couplers too.

wow g12 at monkey hill ❤

Yes, it's true. Because in WAG12, no. of traction motors is 8 while MUed WAG9s have 12 traction motors.

👍Excellent work u sir ji ,thrilling view when dell besides & engine honking
Wow ! excited to watch WAG12. Rather rare sight. Thanks.
प्रणित भाऊ, अप्रतिम videography!
And, I thought, WAG12 is only meant for Bihar, Madhepura, Calcutta belt!! Good!!
It will be used on Western DFC primarily
Dumb!
Wow so beautiful video friend ❤️
Beautiful Capture
Amazing location, nice angle of capturing, awesome video 👍
Mind-blowing video, keep it up
Nice video hai 😃😃😃👍👍👍👍
Nice capture 🤗
Bankers pushing the coaches with their full potential while wag 12 moves like a king of the ghat.
Excellent catch!
Even indias powerful engine need a banker😅
This is a ghat section, all train need the bankers here 😂
bankers use for reducing coupling load...
Make a video on the ghat section between kasara and igatpuri also of the roads deep below at some points.
Amazing video, even a WAG 12 powered loaded freight train also needed triplet banking in this section
Its not about help. Its about the load on couplers. Bankers neutralize the load on each couplers.
👍🙂Very Nice
Is WAG12 running btw pune-mumbai route??
Yes
Super ❤️😍
... do trains coming from khandla towards karjat also requires bankers
They require Brakers. Where WAG7 triple locos are coupled at the front to provide extra braking force. Only for freight trains brakers are required.

Why gaurd van is missing
I have a request to you can you please take today 11025 bhusaval pune express video because my father is locopilot from igatpuri to pune
That great! Sorry but today it won't be possible to go in ghat. You are lucky to be a son of Loco Pilot. 😀
@@PranitsRailworld it's okay 👍 thank you sir

First comment hai bhai
I thought that this was the most powerful loco of IR . . . . . . then why the bankers ? ....and that to 3 bankers...
This is a ghat section of 27 kms and it take train 500+ meters about ground in 27 kms. I think this reason is enough for your question.

I thought WAG12 will not require bankers to push the trains up the ghat.

@@PranitsRailworld thanks for explaining dear..wasn't aware of this aspect
