CHENNAI: Southern Railway, whose finances are precarious due to dwindling freight loadings, is also incurring huge losses due to ineffective use of locomotives, say insiders. Despite...
Excess E-Locos with SR??!!

But SWR SBC division person said the other day that there is shortage of E-Locos so not all trains on SBC-MYS route will get E-Locos. Another cooked reason was loco change time, which is misleading since all trains stop for atleast 10 mins at SBC, so no issue of lack of time for changing locos.

Great point mentioned here erode has almost like 110 wap 4 here in SCR and SWR they are struggling to get elocos.
Slightly misleading report. Its possible the goods locos are underused but certainly not WAP4s and WAP7s. ED P4s are massively used at ERS, TVC, SRR, MDU,TPJ, TN,NCJ,CBE, ED, MAS,MS,SBC,YPR. And of course numerous supply of ED and RPM locos to SWR and SCR trains. SWR simply blames lack of locos whereas the reality is they can't get the substations ready soon to let more trains use eloco.
Yes on MYS route still substations are not ready.

The Someshwara substation on YNK-GTL route is ready I think. So only Prashanti and Prashanti Nilayam got E-Locos (apart from loco reversal at GTL factored in). But still KK, Udyan etc... haven't got due to shortage, I guess.
