Review, Specs Of Trains That FG Ordered For Lagos-Ibadan Railway by AutoReportNG: 3:20am On Feb 06, 2019 |
In our earlier reportage, we broke the news that the federal government has paid for some locomotive trains. These trains will be used for the Lagos-Ibadan Railway and for the Abuja-Kaduna railway respectively. AutoReportNG did a review of the trains the federal government is buying, their images and their specs and these may interest you. 1. NDJ3 Quasi-high Speed DMU [img]https://2.bp..com/-hHmxhxpuu80/XFo47_sqW5I/AAAAAAAAX5A/P1kvTcB-LDEk71xbUGZtwnVJv5vjA4uegCLcBGAs/s1600/NDJ3%2BQuasi-high%2BSpeed%2BDMU.png[/img] NDJ3 “Harmony and the Great Wall” DMU is developed under the transportation demand of Beijing Olympic Games, which commutes between Beijingbei and Yanqing. This DMU is a “2 motor-cars and 7 trailing cars” unit with one motor-car at each end and seven trailing passenger cars fixed in between. The locomotive is equipped with 12V280ZJ diesel engine. The Maximum running speed is 160km/h. Based on mature technologies, long-term operation and inspection results that got from medium and large overhaul, the performance and reliability of main components such as diesel engine, bogie frame, car body, traction motor used for NDJ3 DMU have been well verified. It is well suited for long steep grade. Since NDJ3 DMU was formally put into operation in 2008, this train set has been running safely and reliably for 8 years and was well recognized by customers, It was awarded the first Prize of Scientific & Technological Progress of China Railway Society in 2009.

Auxiliary diesel generator set with power supply functions for passenger cars is also equipped. The double-heading locomotive is of enough power reserve, superior performance of starting and accelerating, guaranteed reliability of key components, which is suitable for long routing. Basic locomotive parameters: Purpose Passenger transport Rail gage 1435mm Transmission mode AC-DC transmission Axle arrangement 2(Co-Co) Axle load 23t Max. Service Power of the engine 2x 3610kW Max. Operating Speed 170km/h Constant speed 83.5 km/h Maximum starting tractive effort 2x 193kN Continuous tractive effort 2 x 125kN Minimum curvature radius negotiated 145m Capacity of fuel tank 2x 7500L Locomotive length 2x 22200mm 4. DF7G Diesel Shunting Locomotive [img]https://3.bp..com/-g98KrkuFFnc/XFo4Df5HZiI/AAAAAAAAX4o/x4qgsmaapggJTUolOYVNdChcRnmsEZyiQCLcBGAs/s1600/DF7G%2BDiesel%2BShunting%2BLocomotive.jpg[/img] DF7G AC-DC electric transmission diesel shunting locomotive is mainly used for marshalling and shunting operations in large and medium sized marshalling yards. It is equipped with 12V240ZJ diesel engine, its main components are interchangeable with the ones of DF4 and DF5, and its components are most suitable for DF4. Based on DF5, improvements on generalization, serialization, modularization, standardization have been made. It adopts modular construction of outside corridor and underframe load-bearing, diesel engine with stepless speed adjusting gear; The main transmission system adopts two excitation systems of PLC constant power excitation and original excitation of power adjustable resistance. The auxiliary system of the locomotive adopts auxiliary electrical transmission, the cooling fan and air blower of traction motor driven by AC motor. The control system adopts color liquid crystal display, with the functions of data display, fault diagnosis, detection and records, etc. Purpose Shunting and transfer operation for the industrial and mining companies or rail line Rail gage 1435mm Transmission mode AC-DC transmission Axle arrangement Co-Co Axle load 138t Max. Service Power of the engine 1840kW-2200kW Max. Operating Speed 100km/h Constant speed 17.6km/h Maximum starting tractive effort 442.1kN Continuous tractive effort 317kN Minimum curvature radius negotiated 100m Capacity of fuel tank 6000L Locomotive length 19400mm Source: https://www.autoreportng.com/2019/02/lagos-ibadan-railway-see-trains-that.html 7 Likes 1 Share |

ETHIOPIA That Ethiopia has built Africa’s first metro is illustrative of the country’s development in recent years: its economy has grown at rates of 10% per year for most of the last decade, partly thanks to grand infrastructure projects like this one. But it is evidence also of Chinese expansion across Africa. A Chinese loan paid for 85% of the $475m the Addis Ababa metro has cost; astonishingly, the line was built in just three years with plenty of imported engineering help. It will be run for the next five years by the Shenzhen Metro Group and China Railway Engineering Corporation. Chinese money is also paying for a new full-sized railway in Ethiopia, connecting Addis Ababa to Djibouti, which is planned to open next year, as well as new lines in Kenya and Nigeria. But other metro projects in sub-Saharan Africa are rare. Lagos, Nigeria’s biggest city, has had plans for a light rail transit system for several years now, which the World Bank has helped to fund; but construction has been continually delayed. There is much fighting over what has happened to the money already spent. Other large African cities, such as Nairobi, are investing more in roads than in rails. Commuters hoping to get onto a train and skip the traffic will have to keep waiting. 10 Likes 2 Shares

MORE FROM ETHIOPIA Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, has now an operating light rail system. The first line commenced operations on September 20, 2015, while second line is still under construction. The significance of this rail system should not be undermined, given this is not Europe where every large city has effective public transport system. Almost every large city in Africa suffers from heavy traffic, and transport systems are nothing short of chaotic. Addis Ababa has now shown that brand new rail infrastructure can be built within a densely built city. The next challenge is it to be an operational success 7 Likes
