This document provides an overview of Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW) in India. It discusses DLW's role as a leading manufacturer of diesel-electric locomotives for Indian Railways and other customers. It also describes some new features DLW has introduced for improved energy efficiency, safety, and crew comfort. Additionally, it outlines the different sections and shops within DLW, including the traction assembly shop, colony, maintenance area, loco assembly shop, and loco testing shop. The purpose of vocational training at DLW is to gain industrial experience and adapt to the work environment.

2. INTRODUCTION
• DLW is one of the leading manufacturers of Diesel electric locomotives in
the world. It has been producing diesel electric locomotives with variety of
designs and technical configurations to suit traffic needs of Indian
Railways and other non-railway customers in India and abroad.
• Some of the new features introduced by DLW in high horse power (HHP)
locomotives with the objective of improving energy efficiency, operational
safety and crew comfort include ‘hotel load’ (Head end power) feature,
ACES (Auto Control of Engine Stop) with APU (Auxiliary Power Unit), DPCS
(Distributed Power Control System) feature, Air Conditioned locomotive
driving Cabs, and Integrated Driver Display system .

3. TYPES OF LOCOMOTIVES

5. TRACTION ASSEMBLY SHOP
• HARNESS SECTION
• BATTERY SECTION
• ASSEMBLY SECTION
• SUB ASSEMBLY SECTION
• CAB SECTION

6. COLONY
• A 132/33KV. Substation is present in Kanchanpur, which receives
power from UPPTCL. This substation supplies power to colony as
well as Main receiving Substation. The Substation distributes the
supply to all the workshops by Ring main distribution system. The
advantage of ring main system is that each end is Fed from two
sides, if in case one line is faulted then the substation is fed by
Other line, but its cost is its major disadvantage.
• TYPES OF CIRCUIT BREAKERS
• LOW VOLTAGE
• MEDIUM VOLTAGE
• HIGH VOLTAGE

7. MAINTENANCE AREA
• BREAKDOWN MAINTENANCE
• PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

8. LOCO ASSEMBLY SHOP
• Loco assembly shop plays a vital role for the
formation of Diesel Engine or an Electric Engine. Loco
assembly shop assembles the whole part or structure
of the engine, when the assembly of the structure of
an engine is done then, the assemble of mechanical
engine, Traction Motor, Auxiliary power generator,
Fuel Tank, Control system etc. is done.

9. LOCO TESTING SHOP
• LUBRICATION OIL TESTING
• WATER TESTING
• LOAD TESTING

10. CONCLUSION
The purpose of the VOCATIONAL TRAINING is to get experience of the industrial world
to see how things work over there. In short, ADOPTATION TO THE ENVIRONMENT. I
was lucky enough to work with a group of enthusiastic and communicative people,
who for whatever reason sharing, enjoying what they are doing. The atmosphere at
DLW is unique and hope that it stays that way. It has been a unique opportunity and
one that I will not soon forget.
