LOCOMOBILE AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO DIESEL SWITCHERS

Abstract

The article deals with outlooks and problems of the use of locomobiles at the rail tracks of industrial entities. Locomobiles are engineered on the basis of heavy-duty trucks and can become an alternative to switchers. But by now they haven’t become yet a reliable solution. The authors study the advantages and shortcomings of locomobiles, reasons why they haven’t managed to partially replace the switchers which are less universal in use.
