Wikipedia definition
2. Electric locomotive"Electric Trains" redirects here. For the 1995 Squeeze single, see Electric Trains (song). An electric locomotive is a locomotive powered by electricity from overhead lines, a third rail or an on-board energy storage device. Electrically propelled locomotives with on-board fuelled prime movers, such as diesel engines or gas turbines, are classed as diesel-electric or gas turbine-electric locomotives because the electric generator/motor combination only serves as a power transmission system.
