The locomotive has a 16 cylinder 710G3B diesel engine with a maximum speed of 904 RPM. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The WDP4D Locomotive:- Newer editions with 4500 hp have been produced which have been named with the sub class WDP-4B /WDP-4D which have different traction control with six traction motors and are Co-Co bogie equipped (more similar to WDG-4), unlike the original which has a Bo-1-1-Bo arrangement with four traction motors. Due to some visibility hindrances faced by loco pilots in driving long hood front, the basic WDP-4B model has been modified to dual cab to eliminate any such possibility.

The newer cabs have slightly wider profiles to improve visibility & LCD instrument display. ====================================================
