History in the making-- DC power -- Last 36 trains on Indian Railways



Mumbai local trains running on direct current (DC) power will become history on Indian Railways main line next week after 90 years.
The dust brown and yellow trains have been a Mumbai trademark all these years.

Only 36 pure DC Electric Multiple Unit trains (26 9-car and ten 12-car) remain on harbour and trans harbour, which too will also b slowly converted, retrofitted into AC-DC.
All the locos have already been converted and no single pure DC loco remains today.
