The WDM-3C were just upgraded and more powerful WDM-3As with the ALCO engine gain rebuilt to output 3300 hp. It was the first follow-up experiment after the WDM-3A to squeeze more power out of the ALCO engine, an intermediary that would later lead to the development of the WDM-3D.
The WDM-2 locomotives from serial numbers around 17788 to 17890 were fitted with full-width short hoods with the intention of improving visibility for drivers. [27] These are unofficially termed 'Jumbos' by crew and rail fans. [28] WDM-2 #17722 and #17748 are rumored to be the prototypes of the jumbo class but differ slightly from other Jumbos.
The engine is classified WDM-3D though it outputs only 3300 hp and not 3400 hp as the name should suggest. They entered service in 2003. A total of 590+ WDM-3D were built at Banaras Locomotive Works (BLW), Varanasi between 2003 and 2016. The WDM-3D is one of the most successful locomotives of Indian Railways serving both passenger and freight ...
Locomotives are classified by track gauge, motive power, function, power rating and model in a four- or five-letter code. [21] The locomotives may be Longer Hood Front (LHF), where the driver cabin is behind the hood of the engine or Short Hood Front (SHF), where the cabin is located towards the front.
Gas Engine for Electric Power Generation from INNIO Jenbacher Model of an S-type Hartop gas engine. A gas engine is an internal combustion engine that runs on a fuel gas (a gaseous fuel), such as coal gas, producer gas, biogas, landfill gas, natural gas or hydrogen. In the United Kingdom and British English-speaking countries, the term is ...
GE 7FDL-12, 12-cylinder engine used in locomotives, such as the GE P32AC-DM [2] GE 7FDL-16, 16-cylinder engine used in locomotives, such as the GE AC4400CW [3] GEVO series (bore 250mm, stroke 320mm [4]) GE GEVO-6, 6-cylinder engine used in locomotive repower/modernization applications [5]
Combined diesel–electric and gas (CODLAG) is a modification of the combined diesel and gas propulsion system for ships. A variant, called the combined diesel–electric or gas ( CODLOG ) system, contains the same basic elements but will not allow simultaneous use of the alternative drive sources.
The World Gasoline Engine is a family of straight-4 piston engines, based on the Global Engine Alliance design. Three engines have been produced: a 1.8 L, a 2.0 L, and a 2.4 L. The initial design of the engine block and cylinder head was handled by Hyundai as part of the Global Engine Alliance.
