Many railway operators are buying modern locomotives, others opt for second-hand or deeply modernized vehicles. This is particularly noticeable in the segment of diesel locomotives. in this context we review the newest deliveries of Newag 15D locomotives:
The first modernized 15D locomotive was built in 2010. During the ten years that followed, more than 100 locomotives were produced. These were delivered to many private carriers, as well as to the national operators PKP Cargo and PKP LHS.
