Urban Rail Transport
Schalke locomotives provide maximum versatility and can be used to perform a variety of tasks in suburban and regional passenger rail transport systems. They are currently in daily use to perform service or maintenance work in the underground and tram rail networks of cities such as Vienna, Bankok, and São Paulo.

Multi-Purpose Locomotives
With their modular design, Schalke service locomotives are highly versatile for above or underground applications. Optional attachments include cranes, workdecks, grinders and industrial vacuums. Easy to use controls and maximum speeds of 60 km hour allow Schalke service locomotives to be highly efficient for a wide range of service tasks in any environment\, Using specially designed bogies the can adapt to track gauges from 914 to 1,676 mm.

MMT-S-800-BDE
Modular Multi System Service And Shunting Locomotive
This four-axle locomotive with reduced loading gauge has an weight of between 48 and 64 tonnes and is an extremely versatile, reliable, working vehicle. Developed for the operators and service companies of underground and urban rail services, this traction vehicle is designed for duties such as constructing or maintaining infrastructure. Due to its modular design, its traction technology and modules can be combined in whichever way suits your need best. The locomotive can be supplied with the required power via a number of different modules: a Diesel-Power- pack, Battery-Powerpack, a pantograph for catenary operation or a third rail and they can be combined with one another or simply used alternately. As such, the locomotive can be easily optimized to suit the intended purpose, such as switching to the environmentally-friendly battery operation when working in or near residential areas.
The ModuTrac design makes Schalke locomotives economical and well equipped for the future, since any new power-source technologies that emerge can simply be integrated as new modules in the existing set-up. Well-designed features also make this ModuTrac Locomotive highly versatile, such as the specially developed bogies, which can cover all known track gauges from 1.000 to 1.676 mm and the extremely narrow loading gauge and the low axle load between 12 and 16 tonnes —making the vehicle suitable for use in practically all tram and underground subway networks throughout the world. This narrow-gauge locomotive reaches a maximum speed of 60 km/h and is a highly efficient workhorse that is suitable for a wide range of service tasks.

MT-S-600-BE
Multi System Service Locomotive
Optimized for use in underground and urban rail networks, the 36-tonne locomotive has been designed to be lightweight but with an axle load of only 9 tonnes. At the same time it has a high power density and can be operated throughout an entire shift without catenary input, thanks to its battery capacity of 540 Ah.
Each of its four wheelsets is driven by a 130-kW AC traction motor, separately controlled via IGBT converter technology. The locomotive is equipped with a highly efficient slip-and-slide protection system that improves traction and minimizes wear on both infrastructure and wheels. Designed for dual-mode operation, the locomotive is powered either by a traction battery or by a third rail current collector, which means it can be used flexibly on any route. The locomotive is also fitted with a four-quadrant controller, enabling it to brake electro-dynamically and effectively bring the entire train to a standstill as well as stop and start on ascending slopes. Its components are easily accessible from the outside, making it particularly simple to maintain. Moreover, its central cab is ergonomically designed and provided the driver with a good all-round view as well as the ability to drive in both directions. A built-in camera additionally facilitates coupling. With tractive effort of 115 kN (at μ= 0.33) and maximum speed of 50 km/h, this service locomotive is an ideal working vehicle and combines emission-free operation with outstanding reliability.
