higher power-to-weight ratio,Electricity enables faster
acceleration and higher tractive effort on steep grades.
lack of exhaust fumes at point of use, less noise and lower
maintenance requirements of the traction units.no need to
switch between methods of traction thereby making
operations more efficient
