Tailor-made locomotives. Masterful for every task.

The powerful tailor-made locomotives master the pulling of passenger and freight trains as well as precise shunting in various environments under a wide range of challenges.

Whether for shunting or train operation, our tailor-made locomotives combine know-how from the field of mainline locomotives with our expertise in the Tailor Made area. They are designed to meet the specific requirements of the operator, regardless of the performance class or operating conditions. Depending on customer requirements, they can be configured with different drive systems - be it diesel, electric or bimodal, but of course also with alternative drives.

Stadler's DNA can be seen early on in the company's history, when Ernst Stadler sold special locomotives to various railway companies. Whether standard, narrow or large gauge, adhesion or rack-and-pinion operation, we develop the right locomotive for every specific requirement.

Overhead lines end, options do not. Stadler's special vehicles with zero-emission drives offer sustainable and cost-efficient mobility, even in small series. The tailor-made vehicles offer the ideal development platform for alternative drive systems from battery to hydrogen

The masters of difficult tasks

It becomes fascinating when customised locomotives are used in unique environments. In Brazil, for example, the world's most powerful rack and pinion locomotives effortlessly manage iron ore trains over a 9km rack and pinion line. This is just one of many proofs that operators can rely on Stadler to provide them with tailored locomotives that meet their exact requirements.
