Los vehículos ferroviarios eléctricos pueden recibir energía de varias fuentes. Un ejemplo son los vehículos eléctricos que toman la corriente de un cable aéreo, a través de una conexión conocida como "pantógrafo". Otro ejemplo serían los alimentados por una batería integrada. Finalmente, también existen vehículos diésel-eléctricos, que cuentan con un motor de combustión interna (el llamado “generador principal”), que genera corriente eléctrica a bordo de la locomotora. Si bien su presencia visual y auditiva puede ser muy diferente entre sí, tanto los vehículos eléctricos como los diésel-eléctricos utilizan motores de tracción alimentados por electricidad para la propulsión.
- Wire-Electric - Drawing electricity from overhead wires, with a pantograph connection.
- Battery-Electric - Drawing electricity from onboard rechargeable batteries.
- Diesel-Electric - Generating electricity onboard, with an internal combustion engine.
While their visual and auditory presence may be vastly different from one another, all these types of vehicles use similar drivetrains for propulsion - traction motors, powered by electricity.
