This paper outlines the basic development background of the Class 58 locomotive and main design features, with areas of design development resulting from the introduction into service in 1983–85 of the first build of thirty-five locomotives and detail changes in design being applied to the second batch of fifteen locomotives authorized in 1984. This locomotive design developed from a joint exercise between British Rail Engineering Limited (BREL) and the then Chief Mechanical and Electrical Engineer (CM and EE), British Railways Board (BRB) in 1977 which resulted in BREL fully participating in the design development to utilize modern manufacturing methods. The Class 58 was designed by BR specifically for freight duties and is based on a strength underframe with bonnet-type structure and equipment in modular assemblies.

Abstract A method for determining the effect of suspension dynamics on tire wear has been developed. Typical city cycle maneuvers are defined by instrumented vehicle testing and data in the form of forward velocities and steer angles are used as an input to an ADAMS computer model of the vehicle. A simulation of the maneuvers generates a tire's operating environment in the form of normal load, slip, and camber variations, which contain all the subtle effects of the vehicle's suspension, steering, and handling characteristics. A cyclic repetition of the tire's operating environment is constructed and used to control an MTS Flat-Trac machine. In this way, accelerated tire wear can be generated in the laboratory which is directly related to the design features of the vehicle's suspension and steering systems.

The analysis of the design features of the bogie of the TEM23 shunting diesel locomotive is carried out. In the process of analysis, the directions of its improvement are determined. It is proposed to rotate the bogie frame in the vertical plane by reducing the body supports to two and using a pivot with low lowering, equip the bogies with pneumatic spring suspension in the form of two corrugations installed in series with shortened suspension springs. The proposed options for improving the undercarriage of a diesel locomotive will increase the competitiveness of products and reduce costs
