EP200
The EP200 (Russian: ЭП200) passenger AC electric locomotive has 8,000 kilowatts (10,730 hp) of power and design speed of up to 200 kilometres per hour (120 mph). It is designed for running passenger trains on railways. The underframe with two unique four-axle wheel trucks coupled with support - frame suspension of commutator-less motors and traction gear boxes (two-level bogie swing suspension with cylindrical spiral springs and hydraulic oscillation dampers) ensure high riding properties and dynamic characteristics of the EP200 Passenger Electric Locomotive.[1]
