how does electrical train works and what type of motors are
used to drive the train?
which level of supply voltage is used?

Answer Posted / bhanu

Electric train runs by using either DC Series Motor or 3-
phase Induction motor
the train receives 25kv voltage, transformer in it steps
down the voltage to 600v ac and then converted to dc for dc
series motor and 750v ac for induction motors.
