About Rolling Stock Department:
Design, Development of various kinds of Electric Locomotives and their equipments, along with development of new Locomotives and its equipment’s with modern technology. Department works in co-ordination with ZR’s/PU’s in improving reliability of Electric Locomotive and their equipment’s by issuing necessary technical instructions. Capacity-cum-Capability Assessment & Type testing jointly with PU’s for TM, Propulsion system, VCU & Transformer of 3-Phase Locomotives. Development of vendors for various items like Brake system, Bearings, Rubber items, HRPT, New Technology items etc. Carry out simulation study for Haulage capacity of different types of Locomotives in different conditions i.e. Load, Gradient, Curve, Speed etc.
