The Indian locomotive class WAG-4 is a class of 25 kV AC electric freight locomotives manufactured by Chittaranjan Locomotive Works in the late 1960s for Indian Railways. The class name reads broad gauge (W), alternating current (A), goods traffic (G), first generation (1). The article says 186 locomotives were built between 1967 and 1969 and that they entered service in 1967, with a monomotor bogie design that saves weight in the traction equipment and gives better adhesion. It states that the class served both passenger and freight trains for over 40 years and that, as of January 2020, after removal from service, all but one were scrapped. The article itself notes that its builder statements are partly contradictory and some of its claims lack citations.
