G 1206Four-axle diesel-hydraulic locomotive for heavy shuntingand main line serviceThe multi-purpose diesel locomotive G 1206is the basis of Vossloh Locomotives’successful range of central cab locomotives.As the standard locomotive used by Germanindustrial and privately owned railways,it has proven itself as a very sturdy locomotiveover many years of operation. Morethan 100 G 1206 locomotives have been builtand are in service in nine European countries,proving very reliable. As a truly “Europeanlocomotive” it is frequently used for crossborderoperation, primarily betweenGermany, France and the Netherlands.The G 1206-2 was developed for heavyshunting, particularly on industrial railways.The arrangement of the machine is speciallyadapted to the job of shunting, with lowoutput and traction performance optimizedfor low-speed operation. The locomotive’sother components are all identical to the G1206, which has proven its reliability overmany years. The large number of identicalparts offers high cost efficiency in training,operation and maintenance.The G 1206 is available in a wide variety ofversions to suit the specific needs of eachcustomer. A variety of diesel engines with arange of output ratings from variousmanufacturers are available, as well as turboreversing transmissions with and withoutrange-change gear. In addition, there arealso various country packages and a widerange of optional equipment.The design philosophy of the standarddiesel locomotivesThe standard range is modular, making ithighly flexible in terms of operating mode,area of application, performance andequipment.Basic features are:- Electronic vehicle control and managementsystem with integrated wheel slide andslip protection and diagnostics- High-speed diesel engines (Cat, MTU)- Turbo transmission with and withoutrange-change gear- Hinge joint to the bogies by deep pushpullrods- Support between bogies and locomotivebody without sliding blocks, systemVossloh Locomotives- Wheel disc brake and modular brake paneldesign- Cooling fan, air compressor and auxiliarygenerator with a regulated hydrostaticdrive system- The central driver's cab extends overthe entire width of the locomotive andis equipped with diagonally arranged frontside doors, which can be reached safelyby operating personnel via the lateralwalkways, without having to leavethe clearance gauge of the locomotiveSafe, convenient shunting stepsG 1206Engine powerLocomotive weight300Tractive effort at wheel rim F [ kN ]250200150100501,500 kW87.3 t00 20 40 60 80 100Running speed v [ km/h]2,500 t1,500 t1,000 tG 1206Engine powerLocomotive weight300Running speed v [ km/h]2,500 t1,500 t1,000 tStarting tractive effort acc. to Curtius and Kniffler, train resistance on level track calculated using formula for complete trains.Tractive effort at wheel rim F [ kN ]250200150100501,500 kW87.3 t00 20 40 60 80 100
