DUAL-POWER DIESEL RACK-AND-PINION
LOCOMOTIVE
MOB, MVR, TPC, TPF and NStCM, Switzerland
In August 2012, the five Swiss narrow-gauge railways MOB, MVR, TPC, TPF and NStCM ordered tailored HGem 2/2 and Gem
2/2 dual-power diesel rack-and-pinion/adhesion locomotives from Stadler. The locomotives are assigned to the infrastructure
divisions to be used for construction work, snow clearing and intervention trips. Their dual modality gives the trains real potential.
In order to move heavy work trains, the locomotives can be operated in multiple unit train control and travel to the working prem-
ises using environmentally friendly electric power. For manoeuvres on-site if the overhead contact line is switched off or in case
of malfunctions, there is a powerful, state-of-the-art diesel engine. The locomotive can be remotely controlled for special jobs.
