Train travel is considered comfortable, where passengers get food, tea, clean toilet and lying facilities. Nowadays, toilet facility is available in every train of long and short distance. But do you know that most train engines have no toilet facility?

The reason for the lack of toilet in the engine

The main reason for not having toilet facilities in the train engine is that there is not enough space. There is a huge shortage of space in the engine design, so that it is not possible to install toilets there. In addition, there is also no door between the engine and passenger coaches, so that loco pilots or drivers are unable to use toilet.

Loco pilot difficulties

Loco Pilot often has to run a train for 10-12 hours. During this time, they are neither allowed to get up from their seat nor can the train be stopped anywhere. In such a situation, they wait for the next station for the toilet. Not only this, due to running a train for a long time, they also have trouble eating and drinking.

Women's loco pilot problems

Female loco pilots have more problems due to lack of toilet in the engine. During this time, she uses sanitary napkins or reduces water drinking, so that she does not feel urinate.

This situation requires improvement, so that the train drivers can get relief and they can take care of their health.
