This document provides information about Chittaranjan Locomotive Works (CLW) in India. It discusses the history and establishment of CLW, some key milestones and locomotives produced. It also describes the quality policy, environmental policy and different types of locomotives produced at CLW, including their specifications. Finally, it lists some of the shops visited during a training program at CLW.
This is training report of chittaranjan locomotives works. This is useful for those student who want to give presentation in collage which is held in 7th semester. In this report , you will find brief introduction of clw, locomotives parts , about electric engines and manufacturing shops in clw.
I had done 1 month summer training on topic " AIR BRAKE SYSTEM USED IN LOCOMOTIVE " from LOCO workshop, LKO....students who are doing so....this file can help them to prepare project file...

idea is to become a technology exporter from present status of technology importer in
Rolling Stock equipment. The main benefit that will accrue from this project is that we shall
become self-reliant in the field of development of Electric Rolling Stock equipment which will
come in a big way not only for the domestic requirement of adoption of new technology in
rolling stock but we shall be in a position to cater to the emerging world market as per the
customized requirement of different countries.
