ABOUT CHITTARANJAN LOCOMOTIVE WORKS
Production of DC Traction Motors and Control Equipment commenced in April, 1967. Currently both DC & AC traction motors are being manufactured. Steel foundry was set up in 1962-63 for manufacture of cast steel loco parts. CLW has in house facilities for machining and assembly of wheel sets, fabrication and machining of bogies etc. The facilities include modern CNC machines, plasma-cutting machines, inert gas welding sets etc
River Ajay flows past CLW along its northern side. Workshops, offices and quarters are spread over the whole are with ample space in between – surrounded by greenery and trees. There are several water bodies in CLW exhibiting a lush green environment which attract a large number of migratory birds every year. A variety of flora and fauna can be seen here all the year round.
Long before others became environment conscious, CLW administration started planting trees, thus turning an arid area into a green one. In 1996 alone 90,000 saplings were planted with the help of the Social Forestry Division of Government of West Bengal. In 2005 also 50,000 saplings have been planted with the help of same agency.
