The WAP-7 is a high-speed passenger version of the WAG-9, with a service speed of 130km/h. At the time (summer of 2000) it was undergoing trials on the Faridabad-Mathura section in 2000. Photo by Sujeet Mishra, 2000.

This is the the most handsome loco of IR. I hope other los will also be redesigned like this as it sports comfortable bucket seats as well!

Well, as part of the team which worked on the design and validation of P7, these comments are very encouraging. They are not designed for real high speeds, something which only P5 can do (P5 can work up to 225 kmph!)

Chunky looks ! At last IR is begining to look presentable atleast as far as its locos are concerned. On a more serious note I hope these new generation locos would help to realize the 200kmph passenger train services in my lifetime.
