Exactly my point was that there is going to be not much difference if a loco change is included, rather than running 500 odd kilometer with WDP4 in so much time, and i believe an idling WDP4 would consume more energy in terms of diesel while an idling e-loco might consume less energy (may be i am wrong in assuming this)
Alternate option to swapping loco.
Shut off e-loco put on a d-loco in front for that 3.45 hr ride between TPJ-ED, enable e-loco back at ED.
