TWO-UNIT GAS-TURBINE LOCOMOTIVE

The inventive two-unit gas-turbine locomotive comprises two traction units which are provided with bodies with a framework and a control cabin and powered trucks. A power unit consisting of a gas-turbine engine for rotating traction and auxiliary generators, an air-preparing device for the gas-turbine engine and auxiliary facilities are arranged in one unit. A tank for storing liquefied cryogenic gas fuel for the gas-turbine engine, an auxiliary diesel generator and auxiliary facilities are arranged in the other unit. The tank for storing the liquefied cryogenic gas fuel is mounted on the framework in the body in such a way that the vertical projection of the center of gravity thereof coincides with the center of gravity of the remaining mass of the unit, wherein, for increasing technical safety, said container and the power unit are separated from the control cabins and the rear walls of the unit by means of insulated sections which are locked during the operation of the gas-turbine engine and contain the auxiliary facilities and the auxiliary diesel generator.
