ENDED
Too early to decide the new loco's performance. After all it is built from the most successful and reliable locomotives to have operated in IR so far. It has a fair chance of being a good performer. And even if it's performance is not up to the mark, the new loco is only being built to better utilize the components in the older locomotives instead of selling them as scrap. A working locomotive is always better than a scrapped locomotive. :)

* Success of Diesel-Electric dual loco depends on many factors like:
(1) Technical performance of loco-operational flexibility, reliability, maintenance, weight, etc.
(2) Cost of Diesel-Electric loco...
