sir, train information who are interested kindly note below information.
The South Western Railway will now run 12 trains on AC traction between Bengaluru and Mysuru. What this means is that these 12 trains will run on electrical locomotives instead of diesel. The move comes after the electrification of the railway line between Bengaluru and Mysuru, which was officially thrown open on March 19. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had on February 20 formally inaugurated the electrification of the rail line between the two cities. The electrification will cut down costs, save time and also reduce pollution. “By attaching the electrical locos at Mysuru itself, the extra time required at Bengaluru for changing from diesel loco to electrical loco will be avoided. Thereby it improves punctuality. Besides, the measure will reduce air pollution and also result in cost effectiveness which help the Railways to save crores of rupees annually for fuel,” stated a press release from South Western Railway.
