LEGIOS GENERAL Locomotive

The new LEGIOS GENERAL locomotive, manufactured by LEGIOS a.s. under the licence by VOITH, represents new standards for diesel-hydraulic locomotives. It combines all advantages of diesel-hydraulics, such as reliability, long service life, easy maintenance and enormous power.

The LEGIOS GENERAL locomotive has mainly been designed for cross-border traffic and can be supplied with various combinations of respective national safeguarding packages. Thanks to its large tank volume, its independence from overhead wires and vehicle speeds from 120 km/h to 160 km/h, it is suitable for both heavy goods traffic and supra-regional passenger traffic. The medium-speed diesel engine with 12 cylinders, highly reliable components and the self-supporting locomotive structure provided with two end cabs make this locomotive a robust multi-talent for the rails all over the world.

Performance and Power

The LEGIOS GENERAL locomotive is ideally suited for the customers who, due to their operating programs, require high tractive efforts combined with high drive powers. The basic characteristics of the LEGIOS GENERAL locomotive are two end cabs, the self-supporting locomotive structure and the associated high tractive effort per wheelset.
