Is it a western Ghat Blunder of Southern Railway...
Twin Engine to be used for PLR - EDMN service. As Single Engine not able to pull the 18 coaches train due to the gradient and sharp Curves . An Engine Will be stationed at PLR station .Will it be profitable for the Railway to use dual Engines for all trains which runs through the route. Wonder what will be happen to the EDMN- AYK Stretch. More Extreme hurdles are awaiting.
