First Indian Prima Complete

On 10 March 2018 Alstom announced the completion of its first two-section Class WAG12 electric locomotive, 60001, at its new works in Madhepura (in Bihar State). These photos show 60001 at the final assembly stage, being moved out of the final assembly hall, and then making a trial run on the factory’s test track. In 2015 Indian Railways placed a 3.5 billion EUR order with Alstom for 800 two-section locomotives, of which 60001 is the first.
