STT T46

Discover the T46 diesel locomotive, a powerful and reliable workhorse designed for demanding tasks.

Originally built by NOHAB between 1973 and 1974, this locomotive underwent significant refurbishment by STT from 2007 to 2008, ensuring its continued operational excellence.

With a top speed of 100 km/h and a standard gauge of 1435 mm, the T46 is built for robust performance. Its Co'Co' wheel arrangement and substantial weight contribute to excellent traction and stability, further enhanced by its EMD 12-645E prime mover generating 1235 kW of power.

This capable locomotive is actively used by LKAB/Malmtrafik in Kiruna AB, Sweden, where it operates as the MTAB T46. Its impressive tractive effort of 310 kN makes it an ideal choice for heavy-duty freight operations, showcasing its enduring strength and efficiency.
