    With regard to the cab swap on 25190. Here is 25189 awaiting scrapping at Doncaster Works on April 20th 1986 with '7540' clearly showing through the paint on the No.1 cab.

    WP 7542 sits on Chhapra Kacheri shed near Patna.
    7542 was built by the Canadian Locomotive Company in 1955 as part of the Colombo aid plan and mighty fine it looks here on visit to the shed in 1992 by British Locomotive Historian, Laurie Marshall's group tours to India
