A well maintained electric locomotive can do 6 to 8 million kilometers during its lifespan. Specialized units, like the TGV locomotives can reach 10 million and more (I think there was no first generation TGV retired by age with less than 9 million km over 30 years.

In their heydays, the SNCF CC7200 used with the Capitole and Etendard trains (Paris to Toulouse and Bordeaux) ran more than 60'000 km per month.
