How Diesel and Electric Locomotives Work from Kalmbach clearly explains, with illustrations, how modern diesel and electric locomotives operate. Learn how these machines produce and transmit their power, from diesel-electric engines to electric supply systems, for a better understanding — and modeling — of the equipment that pulls today's trains.
