new locomotives ge es40aci no good in egyptian railways جرارت جنرال اليكتريك غير جيدة للعمل فى سكك حديد مصر وبها عيوب فنية

General electric built it to Egyptian Railway specs so its not their fault. Egyptian railways at anytime could have reconfigured their order.

Dear friends I have back problems too many after the entry of locomotives for the service of which cracks the wheel and stopped tractors are Mphajy due to a technical fault in manufacturing with a calf, prompting officials to exit locomotive of passenger service and converted to serve the goods only, however, we recognize the force large dropper, but some problems in the manufacturing is the one who drove her to failure, and thank you

[henrikarvidsson]

I gueess they are not good because they are american? or what?????? then make your own locos. I love US locos best in the world!

[uncinarynin]

Why would they order a locomotive that is too high and too heavy for their network?

I guess it can still operate on some lines, but not all?

Regarding the door arrangement - I'm sure there is some emergency exit, such as by the windows?

[ShapurKing]

Egyptian Railways fault. Locomotives are being built according to customer specs.

[jettrainfan]

and that's why you go with EMD :)

I like the music this is set to. What's the song title?

@cdffirefighter I do not talk to you like what you did you obviously you are crazy and the difference is clear between the locomotives GE in large faults and tugs EMD class 66 are both working in Egypt and we know the difference between the two locomotives and excellent be Siemens, Alstom and Vsloh Wa EMD and spectacular failure of the trains GE due to Kmbrosr Hawa many faults and the computer and place the driver's door and stopped the locomotive sudden

GE would build their design to a specification from the customer. Customer would then have to approve the resultant locomotive and would also have to approve completed locomotives before shipment. Why would a customer approve delivery of a product that supposedly has so many defects?

[cismok]

@alasgw If they do this, the cost would go up, and probably GE would lose the bid.

[mazagngi2010]

ده حتى اسمه العباره يعنى شؤم من الاول وقريت فى مصراوى ان فيه واحد اتحرق منهم

[dashloc]

Nice loc ! they had put the door far from the cab because it's way better and more strong in case of collision, i agree not the best for get outside the cab in case of fire !

[tgva325]

Why do you said "old design"? This looks like a non standard one! And why there are pictures of US diesel locomotives that really aren´t similar to those for Egypt?

[tkautzor]

The US locos are shown pulling the Egyptian ones to the port for shipment.

[tgva325]

Yes you have reason ; ).

[topgunatv]

Did see an article on the defects but there was not much detail. Are they really defects though if the Authority signed off on the specifications? This is a unique design built to their specs not sold to anyone else in the world.

The locomotive at 0:36 is for China, not Egypt. It's a different design.

[andybowe]

why differenty couplers on engypt locomotives why USA and not British?

[RodrigoFNB]

Well, ask to Egyptian Railways directors why they choose this design!! If they like a "standard" locomotive, didn´t want for a stranger design.

الجرارت بها قوة جر هائلة يا شريف بس عيبها الاخطر ان الباب في نص الجرار و الوزن 138 طن مش 140 و الارتفاع عادي و مش خطر

بس في حاجة مهمة من ناحية الشكل القليدي و كدة كان فعلا لازم يكون في تغيير و بعدينالاهم بقى ان يا ترى عندها قوة تحمل زي الادترانز و الهينشيل ولا هيكونوا زي المارلبورو
