JHMD #T47.015, Picture 2, Edited and Cropped Version 2, Jindrichuv Hradec, Jihočeský kraj, Bohemia (CZ), 2011
This was after we arrived in Jindrichuv Hradec. This T47 Class diesel represents the most common class of motive power on the JHMD, for both passengers and freight. Also classified as CD or CSD Class 705.9 (because of the period of CSD and later CD ownership of JHMD trackage and equipment, and the later CSD renumbering scheme which JHMD abandoned, as T47 was the original designation), these 8 diesel-electric locomotives (according to a 2005 spotter's guide) have 346 horsepower (258Kw) going to four axles, and a maximum speed of either 40Km/h or 50Km/h, and weigh between 30.5 and 32 metric tonnes. Two of them, #T47.015 and T47.018, were rebuilt in 2002-2003, and ended up with even less power, at 325 horsepower (242Kw), so the unit pictured above, T47.015, would be one of those depowered units. The units that weigh 30.5 tonnes and can only go 40Km/h are #T47.005 and T47.006, both of which were from the original production run of 6 units in 1954-1955. The subsequent 15 units, which the other 6 active units are part of, were the heavier and faster units, and were all built in 1958. Their electrical system is traditional DC/DC due to their vintage, although the rebuilt units are AC/DC. I haven't been able to find the voltage anywhere. All 21 of the original T47's were built by CKD. In spite of their low power and low maximum speeds, it's important to remember that they're narrow-gauge units that pull trains of only one or two cars (typically), with six cars being a long train. In addition, 50Km/h would represent the fastest sections of the JHMD lines, so most of the time these units don't even run at their maximum speeds.
