* Rightly said sir, vibrations of diesel engine are directly transmitted to the mechanically coupled electric generator and not to the coaches where paxs are seated.
* The difference in ride quality is mainly felt when train starts from rest when loco demands huge power to overcome the huge static friction of stationary train. Eloco can smoothly overdraw more electric power from huge reservoir of power available through OHE lines at those few crucial moments and diesel loco could not get that from its diesel generation set. This cause a little bit of jerking effect. Similarly a little jerk is felt when LP some times tries to suddenly accelerate the late running train when speed restriction zone ends during a run....
