This was the first electric locomotive series in India developed specifically for passenger train service, built from 1980 to 1996. Power output was 2.8 MW, top speed 130 km/h. The 65 locomotives of the series were found in front of the high-quality Rajdhani Express trains for many years and were still in service at the beginning of the 2020s. |
