none unless their electricity is supplied by a coal burning power plant, in which case it's probably quite a bit, because electric trains require a lot of energy.

Electric trains don't burn coal unless they are powered from a coal generated power plant. :)

Only steam locos use coal, and even some of those burn oil. If you mean how much coal from a coal fired power plant does an electric loco use then please specify.

Indeed, electrics do not use coal for fuel, only alternating or direct current (i.e., electricity).

They don't use coal, they use a long extension cord.
