CRRC Qishuyan has rolled out the 100th FXN5C mainline diesel locomotive, marking a production milestone for the 4,400-horsepower platform.
Compared with older DC-traction diesel locomotives, it offers higher hauling capacity and lower fuel consumption and emissions. The model forms part of China’s domestically developed 4,400 hp diesel locomotive platform.
By January 2026, the fleet had accumulated more than 6.25m km in service. FXN5C locomotives are deployed by China Railway Taiyuan Group and Shanghai Group, as well as industrial railway operators in Guangdong and Zhejiang, primarily on freight duties.
