Drive solutions for every challenge in track construction
Diesel-powered passenger trains are an essential solution for passenger transport on non-electrified tracks. They connect rural areas, cities, and suburbs, providing mobility even in regions without access to electric rail networks. These trains must meet a range of technical and operational requirements to ensure reliable, efficient, and environmentally friendly operation.
Powerful drive systems
Passenger trains require high-performance engines to operate reliably, even on inclines or under full load. Modern drive systems, like those offered by Zeppelin Power Systems, are based on proven technologies that create a perfect balance between power and efficiency.
Energy efficiency and environmental friendliness
Fuel consumption and emissions are the focus of development. Our modern diesel engines meet strict emission standards such as EU Stage V or EPA Tier 4 and contribute to pollutant reduction through innovative technologies.
Traction power supply
In addition to traction, passenger trains require a reliable power supply for lighting, air conditioning, and other onboard systems. Integrated traction power supply solutions are used to ensure stable energy distribution.
Durability and ease of maintenance
Diesel-powered passenger trains must operate reliably under demanding conditions, such as changing loads and high operational intensity. Zeppelin Power Systems offers comprehensive service solutions, robust, low-maintenance components, and digital diagnostic systems that are crucial for minimizing downtime.
