Good Morning everyone. Can anybody tell me that why does CLW manufacture WAP-4 Locos even after starting to design WAP-7 Locos ? I have heard that both these AC Electric Locos can't haul long distance 20+ Coach Passenger Trains more than 140 Kmph MPS :-p
.
PS: Do P-4 and P-7 serve different kinds of trains on IR Network based upon their acceleration and speed capabilities ? :-o

Raam Sir... you mean to say that P-4 Locos are not 3-Phase Electric Locos like P-7s and remain far more fit since they have been made by Desi Indian Engineering Minds (Although P-7s creator is also a talented Indian Railway Engineer Mr. Sujeet Mishra)... I guess that it's boring maroon livery and unattractive shell design make rail fans prefer P-7/5 Locos over P-4 ;-)
