| Title: |
Diesel power in Norway |
| Description: |
In 1981 the first TMe locomotive was delivered to Danish state railway DSB to replace the older MX, MY and MZ. Since the Swedish Nohab no longer produced locomotives, the order went to the German Henschel. Historically, Germany had manufactured diesel-hydraulic locomotives, but the ME, like its Swedish predecessors, went diesel-electric and was a pioneer in its day, being fitted with an asynchronous motor, anti-lock braking system and modern electronics. |

Diesel power in Norway |
| Description: |
Green flag for the container train to Bodø in northern part of Norway. The line Trondheim - Bodø is in transition for the ETCS (European Train Control System) but not yet operational. ETCS is implemented with standard trackside equipment and unified controlling equipment within the train cab. In its advanced form, all lineside information is passed to the driver wirelessly inside the cab, removing the need for lineside signals watched by the driver. |
