  • Sali DIESEL-ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE Empresa Ferroviaria Andina S.A, Bolivia
    SALi DIESEL-ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE Empresa Ferroviaria Andina S.A, Bolivia At the end of 2017, the Andina-FCA Railway Company and Stadler Valencia signed a contract for the supply of the first three SALi locomotives to be used for freight transport services on its metric gauge railway network in Bolivia. SALi is a 6-axle diesel-electric locomotive with an ultra-lightweight design and with forefront technology, to successfully face the challenges entailed in operating on metre-gauge networks under conditions of great altitude (over 5,000 metres above sea-level) at a maximum speed of 100km/h, combining a high-power output at great altitude with reduced fuel consumption. It features 6 AC traction motors and two acoustic and heat-insulated driver’s cabs, to enhance comfort under extreme temperature conditions. Due to its design and performance, it is destined to become the benchmark locomotive of the Bioceanic Rail Integration Corridor which, crossing Bolivia, will link the Peruvian port of Ilo with the port of Santos, near Sao Paulo in Brazil. www.stadlerrail.com Stadler Rail Group Stadler Rail Valencia S.A.
