Points to Note :
1. In 2007-2008 Pakistan Railways had 545 Locomotives.
2. Now only 360! Did Pakistanis "EAT" 185 Locomotives?
3. Of the 360 only 200 are "OPERATIONAL".
4. Of the 200 "OPERATIONAL" the Minister says they are "NOT RELIABLE"!
Finally : 5. Where is Pakistan going to get money for the 400 Locomotives?
Cheers

Quote:KARACHI: Federal Railways Minister Ghulam Ahmed Bilour has said that Pakistan Railways has 360 locomotives out of which only 200 are operational, though they are not reliable.
The Railways needed 400 new locomotives to overcome the deficit, the minister said at a press conference at the divisional headquarters on Tuesday.
