OMG!
This document is very scary I was very much excited about electrification should be done in all over the India and few zones even do not have a single km of electric route. They must be in profit now

What a horrible document this is BUT as we say that Truth is always Sour . So , Electric Locos are thermal pollutants at times and diesel locos are air polluters . Thus , the conclusion is that IR Trains should use Bio - Diesel Locos on selected Non - Electrified Routes and more Hydro Power Plants should be set up in India for the facilitation of running Electric Locos . Many of the existing Thermal Power Plants should also be replaced by Hydro Power Plants . If Bio - Fossil Plants are not much grown everywhere by IR on it's property in India , then IR should tell DLW , Varanasi to manufacture Pollution Free Diesel Locos

in the future . Keeping ALL of these suggestions in mind ; the Ministry of Railways , Govt of India ; can then proceed in the direction of a Pollution Free Rail Network in India (Also coordinating with the Environment Ministry) . Thanks for this meaningful discussion .

Railways will make profit with electric locomotives after the Nuclear power will come in to full force it can be recycled and use it as much we want so it will be cheaper in future and diesel will turn more expensive in future and railways doesnt want to depend upon diesel in future.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
