There are several untenable situations that train operators face – situations that prove expensive to them in terms of costs, reputation, and viability. These are the factors that could cause them “pain” in both the short- and long-term. Some may face train stoppages due to unplanned traction transformer outages. There is a potential danger and risk for people and the environment due to possible oil leakage.
