The WAG-11 is a class of twin-section 25 kV AC electric freight locomotives developed in 2018 by Banaras Locomotive Works in Varanasi for Indian Railways. Each locomotive is a pair of sections designed for a speed of 105 kilometres per hour and weighing 252 tonnes in total, fitted with three-phase induction motors, four power converters, and regenerative and pneumatic braking. The class name stands for broad gauge, alternating current, goods traffic and the eleventh in the series.
