How many locomotives are there in operation throughout the world?
I am frustrating to grasp the scale of fuel consumption by railways, I have read that modern locomotives burn some 160 gallons of fossil per hour. I wonder why they don't have small steam turbines running off of the exhaust gas heat, like ships use. The turbine could make electricity, which would decrease the amount of fuel required to drive the wheels. Since modern locomotives use electric traction motors, there would be almost no transmute required to the basic system.
Thousands. To get an on target picture you would have to buy or borrow a copy of 'Jane's All The World's Railways'.
Modern diesel locomotives now use leaner-wish engines which put out fewer emissions.
