No Fool's paradise here. Please don't throw around randoms claims like these. Tractive effort charts are available for all the locomotives online. Please refer to those before making any conclusions.
A WAP7 is 'useless' beyond 140kmph. Its tractive effort falls to 'zero'. It won't have any acceleration reserve left and it cannot haul even a short rake above that speed.
A WAP5 can easily go beyond 180kmph with a short rake, while a WAP7 cannot haul even a short rake beyond 140.
