It must be slightly taller than WDM2s - today I saw a same loco in the very same livery at BBS with a road number of 110XX (was raining hard & I couldnt read too well) attached to standars WDM2s (#16XXX). The WDM7 was about 1.5 ft (guessing) taller than WDM2s.

Bizzy, you spotted something else. Only 15 WDM 7's were built, all were homed at ERS once. Now, 8 are at ERS, 7 at TNP and GOC. WDM 7's can be seen only in SR. They have road nos 11001 to 11015. They are infact smaller than WDM 2's.

Also, there is no chance for an ERS loco to go all the way till ECoR territory. If it was a WDM 2, it maybe remotely possible but the WDM 7 will never ever go there
