A Diesel Locomotive on a Gentle Curve
The diesel locomotive follows a gentle bend in the railway, with its second section connected behind it. Railroad tracks run beneath the train, while several fluffy clouds fill the sky above the scene. The curved route helps show how a long rail vehicle changes direction while remaining guided by the rails.
How Diesel Locomotives Travel
A diesel locomotive carries an engine that produces the power needed to turn its wheels. On a curve, the shaped wheel rims help keep the train aligned with the rails. Locomotives can also be joined into multiple units when additional pulling power is needed.
