Indian locomotive class WDM-2 (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Die WDM-2 ist eine Baureihe dieselelektrischer Lokomotiven, die ab 1962 von der American Locomotive Company (ALCo) für Indian Railways und später auch von den Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW) in Varanasi gebaut wurde. Der Baureihen-Bezeichnung setzt sich aus W für wide ‚Breitspur‘, D für Diesel, M für mixed ‚Universallokomotive für Güter- und Personenverkehr‘, sowie 2 für die 2. Generation zusammen. Zwischen 1962 und 1998 wurden bei ALCO und DLW insgesamt mehr als 2700 Lokomotiven gebaut. Damit war sie die meistgebaute Diesellokomotivbaureihe in Indien bis die Nachfolgeklasse diesen Rekord ablöste.

Der Baureihen-Bezeichnung setzt sich aus W für wide ‚Breitspur‘, D für Diesel, M für mixed ‚Universallokomotive für Güter- und Personenverkehr‘, sowie 2 für die 2. Generation zusammen.

Damit war sie die meistgebaute Diesellokomotivbaureihe in Indien bis die Nachfolgeklasse diesen Rekord ablöste. Die WDM-2 ist eine der erfolgreichsten Lokomotiven der Indian Railways, welche die Basis für die über Jahre weiterentwickelten ALCo-Plattform war. Die Lokomotiven konnten auf Haupt- und Nebenstrecken eingesetzt werden. Einige wurden in Nachbarländern exportiert wie zum Beispiel Sri Lanka oder Bangladesh. Neuere Baureihen, wie die WDG-4, und die Elektrifizierung des Eisenbahnnetzes haben die WDM-2 verdrängt. einige Lokomotiven wurden auch zu WDM-3A und WDM-2S umgebaut. Im August 2020 waren noch 23 Lokomotiven für den Streckeneinsatz vorgesehen. (de) The Indian locomotive class WDM-2 is a class of diesel-electric locomotive that was developed in 1962 by American Locomotive Company (ALCO) for Indian Railways. The model name stands for broad gauge (W), Diesel (D), Mixed traffic (M) engine, 2nd generation (2). They entered service in 1962. A total of 2700+ WDM-2 was built at ALCO and Banaras Locomotive Works (BLW or DLW, as it was formerly Diesel Locomotive Works), Varanasi between 1962 and 1998, which made them the most numerous class of mainline diesel locomotive until its successor the WDM-3A. The WDM-2 is one of the most successful locomotives of Indian Railways serving both passenger and freight trains for over 60 years. A few WDM-2 units were exported to neighbouring countries like Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Despite the introduction of more modern types of locomotives like WDG-4 and electrification, a significant number are still in use, both in mainline and departmental duties. As of April 2022, 10 locomotives still retain "operational status" on the mainline as WDM-2, with further examples in service as WDM-3A or WDM-2S. (en)
