Diisellokomotiivid

Diisellokomotiivid are a type of railway locomotive powered by two diesel engines. These engines are typically mounted on the locomotive's chassis, with each engine driving one of the locomotive's axles. This configuration allows for a balanced distribution of power and weight, providing good traction and stability. Diisellokomotiivid are commonly used in freight and passenger services, particularly in regions where electrification is not feasible or cost-effective. They offer flexibility in terms of fuel availability and can operate in remote areas without the need for extensive infrastructure. However, they also have higher operating costs due to the need for regular maintenance and fuel consumption. Despite these drawbacks, diisellokomotiivid remain a popular choice for many railway operators due to their reliability and versatility.
