Locomotives of Jhansi shed  are the regular links for all trains running through Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. Jhansi locomotives used to be predominantly the regular links for trains traveling on the [[North Central Railway zone]] as well. As more and more railway lines were electrified, JHS DLS started receiving electric locomotives the [[Indian locomotive class WAG-7|WAG7]]  locomotives from nearby electric locomotive sheds.
The Shed maintains a passenger link of 15 locomotives, which includes among others the prestigious like the [[Gita Jayanti Express]] & [[Bhopal–Khajuraho Mahamana Superfast Express|Mahamana Express]], [[Ganga Kaveri Express]], Fast passengers trains and Link Express trains.

Being the only Diesel Loco Shed in the North Central Railway zone JHS does various major and minor maintenance of diesel locomotives including washing and painting of locomotives.
