About Loco Portal

Loco Portal is a structured, searchable reference to Indian Railways locomotives. It allows users to look up a locomotive by its number and explore its class, shed, zone and production unit. It is maintained as an independent project.

The database includes the following information:

• Locomotives: Five-digit number, class, home shed, zone, production unit or builder where known, Kavach make where listed, service status, verification status and last verification date.
• Classes: Class code, traction, gauge, service type, overview, history and technical specifications where available.
• Sheds, zones and manufacturers: Codes, names and locations where available.

Current totals are shown on the home page. The database does not claim to list every locomotive.
