This train has been running with diesel traction for a while and it is utter waste of resources in running a train with diesel traction on a fully electrified route. You are not only burning diesel for pulling the train but EOG is also consuming a hell lot of it.

Also zones are giving passenger trains goods electric locomotives like WAG7 or WAG9 due to shortage of passenger locos like WAP4 or WAP7. This severely restricts the MPS of the train to 90kph.
In these circumstances zones should have better given these trains passenger diesel locomotives which are available in abundance now. CR did the right thing in my opinion by giving these trains WDP4Ds instead of goods electric locomotives.
Seeing ICF long distance SF trains with WAG7 or WAG9 is common these days too.
