Re# 684553-21              
The reason for induction of such ICE EMU sets is not bcoz of speed factor but their ability to accelerate and decelerate quicker and sustain high speed throughout bcoz unlike our system where electricity is distributed by loco, In EMU sets it is distributed throughout....
Thus an ICE EMU train set can cover distance between BCT ADI in about 6 hours as compared to 6.45 hours by Shatabdi.....

Also
...
more...
this will have lower power consumption adding to savings.. ...
Faster acceleration will also give quicker right of way to other trains ...

Furthermore, these Locos i.e. WAPs can be used for other trains......shortage of locos can be managed easily....
