00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,208
Each high adhesion truck contains three axles and wheel sets.

2
00:00:05,208 --> 00:00:15,333
This traction motor assembly, also referred to as a traction motor combo, includes the traction motor, U-Tube, wheels, and gear case.

3
00:00:15,333 --> 00:00:21,417
The traction motor is coupled to the axle through a U-Tube assembly and a reduction gear arrangement.

4
00:00:21,417 --> 00:00:26,958
The reduction gear arrangement consists of a small pinion gear and a large bull gear.

5
00:00:26,958 --> 00:00:35,667
When electrical power is applied to the traction motor, the pinion gear, which is part of the traction motor's shaft, turns the bull gear.

6
00:00:35,667 --> 00:00:40,250
The bull gear, which is pressed onto the axle, turns the axle.

7
00:00:40,250 --> 00:00:46,583
The axle, in turn, causes the wheels to rotate, thus moving the locomotive.
