They are widely used on electrified lines in the southwest part of China. Design The design of SS7 was influenced by the 6K, an electric locomotive model imported from Japan.SS7型电力机车 _trainnets.com The first SS7 was built in 1992 in Datong. In 1997, SS7s were used in Nanning-Kunming Railway. However, SS7's frequent failure lead to Datong Electric Locomotive Works making improvements to SS7s. Failure was reduced to just four cases in one year in 2004. SS7 Electric Locomotive was still produced as of 2007. Most of SS ...

25 KV AC Locomotives
5 (five) is a number, numeral and digit. It is the natural number, and cardinal number, following 4 and preceding 6, and is a prime number. It has attained significance throughout history in part because typical humans have five digits on each hand. In mathematics 5 is the third smallest prime number, and the second super-prime. It is the first safe prime, the first good prime, the first balanced prime, and the first of three known Wilson primes. Five is the second Fermat prime and the third Mersenne prime exponent, as well as the third Catalan number, and the third Sophie Germain prime. Notably, 5 is equal to the sum of the ''only'' consecutive primes, 2 + 3, and is the only number that is part of more than one pair of twin primes, ( 3, 5) and (5, 7). It is also a sexy prime with the fifth prime number and first prime repunit, 11. Five is the third factorial prime, an alternating factorial, and an Eisenstein prime with no imaginary part and real part of the for ...

Electric Locomotives Of China
Electricity is the set of physics, physical Phenomenon, phenomena associated with the presence and motion of matter that has a property of electric charge. Electricity is related to magnetism, both being part of the phenomenon of electromagnetism, as described by Maxwell's equations. Various common phenomena are related to electricity, including lightning, static electricity, electric heating, electric discharges and many others. The presence of an electric charge, which can be either positive or negative, produces an electric field. The movement of electric charges is an electric current and produces a magnetic field. When a charge is placed in a location with a non-zero electric field, a force will act on it. The magnitude of this force is given by Coulomb's law. If the charge moves, the electric field would be doing Work (physics), work on the electric charge. Thus we can speak of electric potential at a certain point in space, which is equal to the work done by an externa ...

Bo-Bo-Bo Locomotives
A Bo-Bo-Bo or Bo′Bo′Bo′ (UIC classification) is a locomotive with three independent two-axle bogies with all axles powered by separate traction motors. In the AAR wheel arrangement, AAR system, this is simplified to AAR wheel arrangement#B-B-B, B-B-B. The Bo-Bo-Bo configuration is often used to lower axle weight while keeping lateral forces low compared to a locomotive with two three-axle bogies, thus allowing the locomotive to use lightly laid track, in particular Narrow gauge railway, narrow-gauge railways. Bo-Bo-Bo locomotives The arrangement is extensively used on Italy, Italian and Japanese railways. Other examples include New Zealand's New Zealand DJ class locomotive, DJ, NZR EW class, EW and New Zealand EF class locomotive, EF classes; the Eurotunnel Class 9 locomotives, which were themselves derived from the New Zealand EF class; the Swiss Swiss Federal Railways, SBB Re 6/6 (Re 620); the Russia Railways VL65, EP1 (electric locomotive), EP1 (EP1M), EP10 and EP20 ...
