No more models rolled out in WAM class atleast in WDM class the WDM-3D models are still in production.
Is the WAM class on end after the WAM-4s or IR has plans for new models ?

But why is IR no longer focussing Mixed class locos they are more beneficial as they can be used for both pax and freight services.

IR itself has many pending works bro.
and there is immense pressure already on RDSO with many other projects.
CLW n BHEL is flooded with requests.
few Heavy Horse Powered locos will b useful in certain sections to haul heavy freight wagons at good speed.
now
...
more...
Freight's normal speed is below 70-60 kph avg or even less.
even an EMD with heavy weight in Pacific Union does 90-100 with Auto-rack wagons.
IR is wil introduce wireless radio controlled multiple operations in some locos.
