They Had Several Trails With A P-7
But After So Many Trials Back To EOG
So As Of Now No Train Is Running With HOG.

Kalka Shatabdi used EOG cars which were modified to be used as power cars to supply the power from the loco's HOG to the rake ( HOG locos will still require one power car to distribute the power to the rake ). I don't know if it is running on HOG now, but even if the rake has an EOG car, it is possible that the train is running on HOG, and the EOG cars are just being used as power cars ( with the diesel generator switched off).
In That Case What Is The Real Use Of HOG ?
If We Still Need An EOG !
& KLK Shatabdi Is Back On EOG Not Running With HOG Anymore.

I think my answer was a bit ambiguous.
An EOG car contains two components. A diesel generator to generate electricity and another system to step down this voltage and distribute it to the rake. In case of HOG, the electricity is generated by the loco itself, but some system is still needed to step down the voltage and distribute it to the coaches. This is achieved using what is called a power car ( basically a coach with a transformer). Since the power car only has to distribute the power, one is sufficient for one rake.
