We have successfully supplied the Rail Shunting Locomotive, also known as a switcher or shunter, is a type of locomotive used for maneuvering railway vehicles (like trains or individual railcars) over short distances within a yard or depot, as opposed to long-distance hauling. 
 
 

Key Features:

  • Low Power, Low Speed: They are designed for low-speed, maneuverable operations, rather than high-speed travel. 
     
  • Tractive Effort: They have sufficient tractive effort to move heavy loads, but not necessarily high top speeds. 
     
  • Coupling Systems: They often have specialized coupling systems for connecting to and moving railcars. 
     
Applications:
  • Yard Operations: Sorting and grouping freight cars. 
     
  • Depot Operations: Moving trains into and out of depots. 
     
  • Industrial Sites: Moving railcars around industrial facilities. 
     
  • Maintenance: Towing and moving maintenance equipment.
