Why INDIAN TRAINS are NOT AERODYNAMIC ?

Pointy is scary... square is not scary 😂😂😂

Make it pointy, Point is scary —General Aladeen

i guess the train speeds were not that high so flat surfaces didnt make much of a difference. also flat surfaces are easier to clean and they also provide a more clearer view to the loco pilots. now with increasing speeds, the aerodynamic structure will be required to reach and maintain higher speeds.

LoL that Thumbnail Tejas 😂😂 Glad we have Vande Bharat now.

Some steps I believe are required to be taken in order to improve the railways :- 1. Track Upgradation 2. Efficient and Timely departure and arrival of trains 3. DFC’s 4. Track Doubling 5. Improved Railway Stations 6. Improving Ticketing System Overall 7. Separate lines for Cargo Trains and Passenger Trains 8. Better looking and aerodynamically shaped coaches! 9. 100% Electrification 10. Logistics cost should be reduced to a significant amount to improve earnings 11. Proper fencing around all railway tracks to avoid cattle 12. Skilled staff and skilled workers to be hired These are some steps which can highly improve the efficiency of Indian Railways! And according to me these should be implemented by the 2035 in order to become highly self reliant and to have a improved system of Railways in India! Besides all these older coaches and engines should be retired finally these are some of the powerful coaches but it’s time to increase the frequency of the trains rather than carrying 1000’s of passengers at a single time! Quality over Quantity is required now!

Maybe we need a dictator from Wadiya to make it pointy🤣🤣

vande bharat has the scope of covering the undercarriage. if done there would be some reduction in drag and help in increasing speed and efficiency

RRTS also luks aerodynamic like Bullet train.

A legend has once said "Round is not scary.pointy, is scary.!!"

I always had this question in my mind. Thank you for uploading this video.

Another reason is Open Door and Windows which can create vortex during high speed if engine are made Streamline

The Chad WCAM3 at the start 00:01 made my day. The Toyotas of Mumbai Division of Central Railway. Robust, reliable, low maintenance, and go anywhere as long as the tracks are electrified, be it DC or AC. They'll always remain one of the favourite locomotives of Bombay Railfans.

#AskPT isn't most of locomotive around the world are like that with little to less incline, the locos of america and Europe are same as the Indian locos but more sleek because of the better build quality. Most of the aerodynamic trains are mostly high-speed trains like shinkansen and vande bharat, which are completely coupled to each other for better aerodynamics. There are train set with power cars at the end (TGV and Acela, they are not emus) but they are also completely coupled to the trains, so i think instead of wasting resources on aerodynamic locomotive we should have more EMUs like vande bharat.

Modern high speed trains look sleek, but our Indians locomotives look badass and powerful...🔥

1:53 what is this contraption 🤮🤮

Also to add, extended nose would also work as a safety feature with crumple zones, and keeps the driver much away from the front, as compared to flat front.

Bro plzz make one video on green hydrogen

video on Shinkasen train technology,please

Open windows, Open doors, gap between coaches cause much more drag than locomotive front. Just fixing these issue might result significant improvements in fuel efficiency.
