Modern locomotives and their influence on track loading

Modern high-performance locomotives are designed for cross-border traffic throughout Europe. High and reliably reproducible coefficient of friction utilization is particularly important in freight traffic, as it enables high tractive forces to be achieved in operation. Find out how modern universal locomotives achieve significantly higher tractive forces while reducing track stress.
