Indian Railways has sent another 3000 HP Cape Gauge locomotive to Mozambique to strengthen the Indo-African relationship.
Earlier this year, the national rail transporter exported the initial batch of two locomotives.
The locomotives were sent as part of a total order of six locomotives, along with 90 stainless-steel passenger coaches to Mozambique.
These Cape Gauge diesel locos have been developed indigenously by Banaras Locomotive Works, a production unit of Indian Railways, under the Make-in-India initiative.
The 3000 HP Cape Gauge locomotives have the capacity to transport 2,255t at a speed of 100km/h.
The control console of the locomotive has been created and developed for right-hand drive.
