The Indian locomotive class WCP-3 is a class of 1.5 kV DC electric locomotives that was developed in late 1920s by Hawthorn Leslie for Indian Railways. The model name stands for broad gauge (W), Direct Current (C), Passenger traffic (P) engine, 3rd generation (3). They entered service in 1930. A single WCP-3 was built at England between 1928 and 1929.
The WCP-1 served both passenger trains for over 40 years. With the introduction of more modern types of locomotives and 25 KV AC electrification, all were withdrawn by early 1960s. Today the locomotive is scrapped.
