TRANS SUBCOURSE 675

MAINTENANCE OF DIESELELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVES

AND ROLLING STOCK

INTRODUCTION

Maintenance of railway equipment is performed to keep equipment in a

safe and serviceable condition. The effectiveness of that maintenance

directly affects the efficiency of railway operations, particularly in a

theater of operations. Military railway men and all transportation officers

should know how, when, and why to inspect and maintain railway equipment.

This subcourse introduces you to the Army's dieselelectric

locomotives and rolling stock, regulations that govern railway equipment and

maintenance, forms used to guide inspectors and maintenance men in

performing their duties, and preventive maintenance indicators for railway

equipment.

This is a twolesson subcourse, including two lesson exercises, lesson

solutions, and an examination. Before beginning this subcourse, ensure that

your social security number (SSN) or student number and the subcourse number

are printed correctly on the response sheet. If either is incorrect, return

the sheet to AIPD, calling attention to the error. AIPD will in turn send

you a corrected sheet. You must also include your SSN or student number on

all correspondence.

This subcourse consists of two lessons and an examination:

You must complete the lesson exercises under the concept of selfpaced

instruction. You must grade the exercises yourself, using the lesson

solutions. Because of this, we have only forwarded one examination response

sheet with this subcourse. You must use this sheet to submit your answers

to the examination questions. After successfully completing the

examination, you are entitled to three credit hours for the entire

subcourse.

To complete this subcourse, you must

o Study the text material assigned for each lesson.

o Answer each question in all the lesson exercises by marking or

circling your answer in the lesson book.

o Check your answers against the solutions provided in the

subcourse. Look up the text reference given on the solution

sheet if you answered any question incorrectly. Study the

reference and evaluate all possible exercise solutions; make

sure you understand why the correct answer is the best choice.

o After completing the lesson exercises to your satisfaction,

complete the examination as directed and mail your response

sheet to AIPD for grading.

After you finish this subcourse, keep the reference text, lesson book,

solution sheets, and the examination. Only return the examination response

sheet to AIPD.

Text and materials furnished: Trans Subcourse TR0675, Maintenance of

DieselElectric Locomotives and Rolling Stock , June 1976, and one response

sheet for answering the examination questions.

operate its traction motors.

Matching

Preventive maintenance procedures to be carried out on

various systems on a dieselelectric locomotive are

listed in column I. In column II, the systems are

listed. From column II, select the correct system

that matches the preventive maintenance procedure

listed in column I. Indicate your choice by writing

the proper letter by each question. Each item in

column II may be used once, more than once, or not at
