A lot of diesel engines rack up 100,000s of miles. This is because of their long life span. In America, we have diesel locomotives still in service from the early to late 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and some built just a few days ago. As it turns out, you could say that some of these engines have racked up about a million miles or more of total run time. It can be inaccurate though, because a lot of locomotives are re-powered and rebuilt/refurbished. Yet, that comes back to your personal interpretation of what you'd considered the reset point for the mileage. Yes, there have been locomotives that wreck out early in life and don't reach high mileage, but locally you can find old locomotives from the 1970s that have tons and tons of miles on them and run just fine.

Which is the engine that gives max mileage either diesel or petrol engine?
Diesel will always give you better fuel mileage as diesel fuel itself contains more BTU (the measure of thermal energy) in a given quantity than compared to gas.So therefore a diesel engine can extract more mileage out of a gallon of diesel fuel as there is more energy to extract out of that gallon as compared to a gallon of gas.Considering this, this is why diesel fuel prices would have to rise considerably over gas before the two would be equal on a cost per mile basis.
Can diesel gives more average than petrol?
