Update 7.11.2021: Updated to diesel engines. Detailed description soon.

Medium size and power maneuvering diesel locomotive (shunter) heavily inspired by Polish Newag's 18D. Convenient in operating, can pull 1150 tons (metric) of cargo with speed up to 50km/h (diesel fuel). Empty - up to 100km/h.

- Remote controller - rear of the cabin, just left of the gauges
- Hose hooks (red) on the front of the tank assembly - oil, on the back - fuel.
- Crouch in order to enter/exit the cabin.
- For additional power boost use kerosene.

Medium size and power maneuvering diesel locomotive (shunter) heavily inspired by Polish Newag's 18D. Convenient in operating, can pull 1000 tons (metric) of cargo with average speed of 80km/h.

Important:
- After pasting/assembling the blueprint it is necessary to activate and resave the controls (correct number of controls: 12) in the central controller shown on screenshot 7.
- If the locomotive was assembled in survival, the ballast boxes in front and back of the locomotive (screenshot 5) and in bogies (screenshot 6) should to be filled with weights.
- The locomotive is multiplayer friendly, however it was tested and works correctly with the community fixes to ME published on PlanetsNoLag (PNL) server discord: https://discord.gg/YuJwhHS . Especially it relies on the free camera movement and inertia tensor fix. Thus it is not known if and how it will perform in pure official version of the game.

Features and maintenance:
- Access: through the ladders onto the deck and through one of two doors (front-left and back-right). Important: Crouching is needed to pass the door.
- Fueling: Engines are accessible through hidden ports marked on screenshot 4.
- Operations: Through central remote controller located on the back of the cabin. Engines and brakes are set to channel 1.
- Multiplayer/performance: the grid group syncer and static/dynamic switcher are located in the center of the cabin floor.
- Additional storage: there is a crate and a small chest in the back of the cabin (rear engineering compartment).

Survival gameplay: For someone playing the vanilla game the resource requirements may appear enormous, however with mining drills, conveyors and other 'industrial' mods the cost is actually not that high. This locomotive has in fact been built on PNL server in survival gameplay to satisfy growing needs for pulling power (yes, with industrial mods you may actually need such locomotive).

Many thanks to Xaerthus and Baron Bradders for helping with testing this locomotive and for putting up with me tearing their rolling stock in the process. Special thanks to Peaceman for maintaining the PlanetsNoLag server and contnuous hard work on providing fixes for the game. Further special thanks to the community, especially Deepflame and Equinox for continuing on finding and offering fixes for the existing bugs. Finally thanks to the modding community for staying aboard and continuing the development of new content.
