The China Railways DFH1 was a type of 4-axle B'B' single-cab diesel-hydraulic locomotive used on mainline passenger services; the DFH3 was a later development of a similar design but with two driving cabs.
The HXD2 is an electric locomotive and a series of related locomotive classes built by CRRC Datong Electric Locomotive and Alstom. The locomotives designs are based on the Alstom Prima electric locomotives, and are a product of a cooperation agreement signed between the two companies in 2004. All locomotives are intended for heavy freight work, including coal trains on the Datong Qinhuangdao line.
The HXD2C is a 6 axle Co′Co′ freight locomotive which shares a similar exterior design with the HXD2B. The individually inverter controlled traction motors, body structure overall structural design also are the same as other members of the series; with transformers from ABB. The locomotive power is reduced to 7.2 MW (9,700 hp), suitable for trains of 5,000–6,000 tonnes. The locomotive can be ballasted to give axle loads from 23 to 25 tonnes. The HXD2C locomotives are constructed by CNR Datong.
The HXD1D is a semi-high speed electric locomotive developed by CRRC Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Co., Ltd in association with the Chinese Ministry of Railways Science and Technology Development department. The design was revealed in 2012 - it is a 7,200 kW (9,700 hp) power six axle, 126 t, Co'Co' locomotive with a top speed of 160 km/h (99 mph). It is capable of accelerating a 3,000-passenger, 20-carriage train to 160 km/h within five minutes.
The CSR Ziyang SDA1 is a high-powered diesel-electric locomotive manufactured by CSR Ziyang and later CRRC Ziyang, China in association with MTU Friedrichshafen, for use in Australia.
The Plymouth CR-8 was a class of 4-axle B'B' centre cab locomotive, built by Plymouth Locomotive Works, USA
The DF5 is a diesel-electric locomotive used by China Railway in the People's Republic of China. It has been in production since 1976 and is still produced as of 2006 by several local companies. It is the most common road switcher locomotive in China and is used for yard and road switching duties. A small number are also in service with the Korean State Railway in North Korea.
The HXD3D is a high power electric locomotive of China rated at 7.5 MW as it uses 6 Toshiba traction motors rated at 1.25 MW. The locomotive is produced by CRRC Dalian Locomotive Co. LTD. Like the China Railways HXD1D, China Railways HXD3D is expected to ease the tension in railway operation of quasi-high speed locomotives, and to fill a gap in China mainland of the actual quasi-high speed application of high power AC locomotives.
The HXN5B, is a diesel-electric locomotive used by China Railway in the People's Republic of China. It has been in production since 2012. It is a new-generation road switcher type made in China and used for yard and road switching services.
The Class DB500 (DB500形) is a B wheel arrangement two-axle diesel-hydraulic locomotive type operated by Japan Freight Railway on shunting duties in Japan since March 2017.
The NZJ "Lushan", also registered as the NZJ1 are a class of diesel multiple unit (DMU) of China Railway. These sets were built by Tangshan Locomotive in a 2M2T layout of four cars with Cummins diesel engines and Siemens electrical equipment. Three sets were built in total between 1998 and 2000, with two operated by Nanchang Railway Bureau and one by Kunming Railway Bureau.
The NDJ3 "Great Wall", previously labeled the "Harmony Great Wall" is the only higher-speed diesel multiple unit that is still operating in China. It was first designed to be used for passenger transport in the 2008 Olympics, and has become a mature technology platform with export orders to Nigeria despite initial flaws related to overheating of electrical cables in the power car.
The Dongfeng diesel multiple unit, also known as the Dongfeng motor coach, and NM1, was a DMU of Ministry of Railways, and was also the first diesel-hydraulic power car and double deck passenger car of China, built by Qingdao Sifang in 1958. The train consisted two motors and four double deck trailers, and was designed for short, commuter services. Each motor has two DV12A high speed diesel engines, and has the SF2006-1 hydraulic transmission. As the set had numerous flaws, it never entered mass production, but the valuable experience gained in the design and manufacturing process was later applied to the DFH1 and Red Star-class locomotive, while the passenger cars designs were later further developed for double deck trains such as the NZJ.
The DJF1 "Zhongyuan Star" was an electric multiple unit of China Railway. It only operated in service for less than five years, before it was removed from service due to its various flaws and high maintenance costs. The train was initially built as a six car set, and subsequently lengthened to a fourteen car set. The two driving motors and the middle two motor cars have been preserved, with the other carriages being scrapped.
The KDZ1A "Chuncheng" was an early attempt at building an electric multiple unit in China with the participation of Changchun Railway Vehicles, Zhuzhou Institute and Kunming railway bureau. Development was completed in 1999 in time for the Kunming World Horticultural Exposition. As its predecessor, the KDZ1 never operated commercially, the KDZ1A became the first Chinese EMU to be in revenue service, although it was in service for only 10 years before being withdrawn.
