Actually, this isn't offlink :P. This train gets a fluctuating link (WAP5 or WAP4 most of the times) nowadays :).

P5 can accelerate fast as well. Difference is, it's better known for its high-speed capabilities :P.
And note its avg speed : only 41 km/h!!! Give it a WAP1, please :). WAP5 is too much!

Now that BRC WAP5s are entering SR and especially have entered RPM ELS, I hope that very soon we may see RPM/LGD WAP5. :P

LGD is a more experienced ELS. RB may allot P5s there so that they could serve 2 high speed corridors :-
1. Hyderabad-Chennai.
2. NGP-BSP-SC.
If LGD bags them, we'll be able to spot them daily in MAS. Same for AQ and TKD also, whose locos sometimes visit MAS. Very recently MAS SBC DD got AQ WAP7, right? Either way, MAS will benefit! :D
...
more...

GZB and BRC both are 2000+ kms away from MAS anyways!
