Some locomotives alone weigh hundreds of tonnes, while weight is an issue, it’s less of an issue than most applications.

Yep, but you’re suggesting that a train which with a diesel motor that weighs that much, wouldn’t be an issue with batteries. If you are going electric, skip the batteries and go over head tram lines and be done with it.
