from recent posts it has been noticed that "hwh wap4" of eastern railway has been used consistently with hwh cstm duronto for its high speed(max speed potential 130km/hr as sources claimed)......... as compared to src(santragachi wap4----- max speed 110 km/hr).
[depicted in picture 1 uploaded by me power of 12262 hwh cstm drnt standing at pf 22 of howrah]
i think if ser allows wap4 with a speed potential 130km/hr to ply in its railway territory then why not wap7!!!!!!!! a fully sophisticated loco with a max speed of 130-140 km/hr with
...
more...
a superb pick up/accelaration capacity as per the situation.......................
[depicted in picture 2 uploaded by me the cabin and loco pilots of wap 7 which hauls tvc nzm rajdhani from kota to hazrat nizamuddin]
ser should use wap7(the white demon and the most successful loco presently in india for aristocrat trains like rajdhani and duronto) only for the following three non stop trains:
12262/12261 hwh cstm duronto
12222/12221 hwh pune duronto
12245/12246 hwh ypr duronto
please share views..........................

IR restricts WAP7 at 140 and not 160.. which is the same for WAP4's. If the section is allowed 140kmph a WAP4 can do it but a wap7 can do it with better acceleration.

But for high speed runs we need articulated train sets. The number of wheels on vestibuled or coupled coaches is high and will cause excessive friction. and in articulated coaches, one cannot separate a coach that so easily. The entire rake will have to be sent n for maintainance even if the problen exists in only one coach. AFAIK our infrastructure and processes will not be ready for this even after 20 years

This theory of yours is more funnier than the previous. You are comparing HWH-NDLS route with HWH-CSTM route. Here I hope everybody can joudge how much you travel around in these routes or you may be sleeping throughout or some 'other' activities......
Suppose the distance of your crotch from your shoulder may be same as the distance of your crotch from your feet. But try touching it with your tows as easily as you can touch it with your fingers.
I hope you understand now
