What the Diesel Locomotive Traveling Along Railway Tracks Shows
The diesel locomotive and its passenger car occupy the foreground and middle of the railway scene. They travel along the tracks beside a grassy embankment, while a line of low shrubs stretches across the background. Puffy clouds rise above the train, completing the view of its journey through the countryside.
Facts About Diesel Locomotives on the Railway
A diesel locomotive usually uses a diesel engine to generate power for electric traction motors that turn the wheels. This arrangement is known as diesel-electric power and allows the locomotive to pull heavy cars efficiently. Grassy railway embankments raise and support tracks where the surrounding ground is lower or uneven.
