Preliminary analyzes in terms of the possibility of reducing energy consumption by the SM42 locomotive used in track works

Track operations require specialized machinery and equipment. Among them, the SM42 locomotive is an indispensable vehicle. Locomotives of this type have a significantly different nature of work compared to locomotives used in passenger and freight traffic. A large percentage share of the work is eng...
