Reference [3] [4]. In July 2010, the Ministry of Transportation issued Regulation No. KM45/2010, which among other things, renumbered the locomotive unit number. Under the new regulation, the unit number consisted of year of entered service and the unit number of that year (e.g. CC201 78 03 (former CC201 31) denotes that it is the third CC201 that entered service in 1978).

An articulated bogie (aka Jakob-type) is any one of a number of bogie designs that reduce weight, increase passenger comfort, and allow railway equipment to safely turn sharp corners, while reducing or eliminating the "screeching" normally associated with metal wheels rounding a bend in the rails. There are a number of such designs, and the ...
The GE CM20EMP (also known as CC206 in Indonesia) are diesel-electric locomotives owned and operated by Kereta Api Indonesia (Indonesian Railways Co.) and built by GE Transportation. The GE CM20EMPs are multipurpose locomotives, not only for hauling passenger trains (i.e. executive class, business class, or economy class), but also freight trains.
A monomotor bogie (French: bogie monomoteur) is a form of traction bogie used for an electric locomotive or diesel-electric locomotive. It is distinguished by having a single traction motor on each bogie.
EA203 series uses air-spring bogie (bolsterless) with the TB-914 type on the train driver's cabin and the MB-514 on the middle train, which is a development of the EA201 series and Inka-Hitachi EMU, which also has a similar shape to the TR235D/TR241B/TR246E and DT50D bogie on the 203 series and 205 series which is a EMUs produced by a Japanese ...
Meanwhile, the second to fifth trains have motors, also known as motor cars (M). [22] All Ratangga trains are classified as executive trains and have serial numbers K 1 18 01 to K 1 18 96. The complete formation of a Ratangga train consists of Tc1-M2'-M1'-M2-M1-Tc2. [ 23 ]
A Schwartzkopff-Eckhardt bogie (German: Schwartzkopff-Eckhardt-Lenkgestell or Schwartzkopff-Eckhardt-Gestell) is a mechanical device to improve the curve running of steam locomotives. The Schwartzkopff-Eckhardt bogie is a further refinement of the Krauss-Helmholtz bogie , whereby two coupled axles and the carrying axle are combined within the ...
The bogie is a type of pony truck and was named after the locomotive firm of Krauss and the engineer, Richard von Helmholtz. By contrast a Bissel bogie is independently installed in the frame, and sideways guidance of the locomotive is achieved by elastic forces.
