Happy to see that now South Eastern Railway is COMFORTABLE with the most popular 3-Phase Passenger Locomotive WAP-7. As a result of which this Railway Zone now Owns WAP-7 in it's SANTRAGACHI & TATANAGAR Electric Loco Sheds and use WAP-7 as "Regular Links" of the following Prestigious Trains of this Railway Zone

It is a matter of sheer pleasure & satisfaction that being one of the OLDEST Rail Zones South Eastern Railway finally introducing WAP-7 In it's two popular Electric Loco Sheds as mentioned and begins the Glorious Journey of this most Popular 3-Phase Stallion after a long gap of nearly 15 years(1st WAP-7 was introduced in IR on the year 2001 & allotted to GZB of Northern Railway) which is unexpected from South Eastern which is familiar with Conventional Passenger Electric Locomotives WAP-4 & WAM-4.
So, this Landmark Achievement of South Eastern can prove that this Rail Zone has a bright future ahead. Expectations can be made that more & more WAP-7 will be allotted to SRC & TATA IN near Future to AUGMENT & BOLSTER the STRENGTH OF WAP-7 FLEET OF THIS RAILWAY ZONE IN ENSUING YEARS.
Now as a Railfan I can ONLY DEMAND the following
SER SHOULD use WAP-7 as the "REGULAR LINK" of the following Demanding Trains too
================================================== ================================================== ========
****** PURI SHATABDI EXP( HOG WAP-7 SHOULD BE USED WITH THIS WHERE SER HAS GOOD NUMBER OF HOG WAP-7)
Why still WAP-4 is used with PURI SHATABDI ??????
Is it Logical to use WAP-4 with PURI SHATABDI & use Generator Cars to provide Power to this Train where SER has Power Generating WAP-7 Locomotives.
********* COROMONDAL EXP(EITHER FROM END TO END OR FROM HWH TO VSKP)
*********** SRC MAS AC EXP(END TO END)
*********CHENNAI MAIL
*********MUMBAI MAIL(VIA NAGPUR)
********* GYANESWARI & SAMARSATA EXP(RECENTLY LHBFIED)
================================================== ================================================== ========
So we can expect that in near future the abovenoted Trains will be given WAP-7 as "Regular Links" . As a matter of Fact we expect WAP-7 with more & more SER Trains in the coming years and simultaneously WAP-4 should be used with Lesser Trains in SER in the coming years.
