Tests The new TEM33 shunting diesel locomotive with a double diesel engine unit manufac- tured by Machine Building Plant (BMZ, a member of Transmashholding) successfully completes its 300-hour test in service. TEM33 diesel locomotive During its tests at Bryansk-II Depot, TEM33 demonstrated its significant advantages over the serial diesel locomotives operated by the same successfully tested depot. It is equivalent to two ChME3 shunting diesel locomotives and can deliver cargos weighing from 5,000 to 6,900 tons to a hump yard. TEM33 consumes 10% less fuel than the locomotives operated by Bryansk-II Depot. Environmental friendliness is another advantage of the new locomotive; its operation will allow reducing air pollutant emissions to 20%. According to drivers, TEM33 differs from its predecessors in its enhanced control comfort, noise isolation, diesel locomotive safety, and amenities. In late 2014, the locomotive will undergo further acceptance and certification tests at the test center.
