the intellitrain service of EMD presently seems to be very inefficient as compared to the global competitors like bombardier and alstom ....... the manufacturing and locomotive engines business is proving to yeild lower EBIT margins in the current business scenario...... where all the companies are focussing more on the locomotive maintenance and service of engines EMD seems to be stuck with spares supply and some G($D@( services that would obviously hit the companys revenues..... and i dont know why EMD is not doing anything to upgrade its valued add services which are the need of the present...... one things for sure its tough for emd to survive only on the legacy of its manufacturing excellence when the competition is intense....
