Initially the axle load was expected to be a light and the power at ~.〔(Europe/Mid East - 'Blue Tiger' unveiled, Rail ) ''janes.com''〕 In practice, the German locomotives had an axle load of (which is normal for this type of diesel locomotive). General Electric supplied diesel engines and electrical transmission system (which utilised IGBT-based inverters driving AC traction motors). The rest of the locomotive was built by AdTranz in Kassel. For the Pakistani export models a 16-cylinder engine was used. Bombardier took over AdTranz in 2001, subsequently the Blue Tiger locomotive was shown at InnoTrans in 2002〔(InnoTrans 2002 in Berlin ) ''railfan.de''〕 with a view to European orders. The German production models had a mass of (axle load ) and an engine power of . As of 2009, the class is no longer listed as a production model by Bombardier; GE lists also lists the family as a former production type.〔(Earlier locomotive models ) ''getransportation.com''〕 For the European market, Bombardier produces the less powerful diesel variants of the TRAXX family, whilst GE offers variants of its Evolution series for export. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ADtranz DE-AC33C」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
