wap-7 is a very good loco but wap-7 hs may be better as because the present trend of IR is increasing the speed of trains and they are preparing their tracks for more speed...
wap 7 hs is suitable for good speed as because it has less weight and modified gear ratio for attaining 160kmph constant speed

Dear Friends,
If you look at the Loco Picture WAP-7 written in hindi in the Loco Body... of 30455
Now this loco should be printed as wap-7i instead of wap-7

Loco has IGBT technology
SL NO: 403
Loco Class : WAP-7
CLW NO: TPP 255
Loco no: 30455
Allotted Shed: HWH
Zone: ER
Dispatch Date from CLW: 30.03.2016
The Full IGBT Loco List is annexed with this post for reference by clw as on 3rd June 2019
Previously a class named wap-7i was introduced when IGBT Locos were turned out from CLW that system mainly followed to distinguish those Locos from the GTO ONES.
But as now GTO Loco production has completely been stopped by CLW & other Units only IGBT is produced so I think Railway thinks that no need to distinguish IGBT P-7 as a seperate Loco class wap-7i so they continue with WAP-7 which now means IGBT P-7 as well as earlier GTO P-7 too.
IGBT LOco LIST : click here
RDSO Document on Benifits of IGBT over GTO (PDF Document attached)
Link: click here
so i think the matter of printing wap-7 not wap-7i over Loco body is clear now.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
