Need :- |
Due to
advanced mechanical design especially those of bogies,
the locomotive has low unsprung masses and is truly
track friendly. Presently WAP-5 is the only passenger
locomotive with fully suspended drive. Anti-collision
posts give locomotive superior crash worthiness. The
fleet of WAP-5 class locomotives is now being geared up
for the proposed 150 kmph services
