The D19E, also known as Đổi mới,[1] is a series of diesel locomotives currently used on the Vietnamese railway network.

History

The series is one of the most recently acquired by state railway company Vietnam Railways; 40 were in service as of 2005,[1] 80 in 2012.[2] The series, of the diesel electric type China Railways CKD7F, was constructed by Chinese manufacturer CSR Ziyang Locomotive Co., Ltd..

No. 901 to 920 (built 2003—2004) and 921 to 940 (built 2006—2007) have a more angular body. No. 941 to 960 (built 2007—2008) were built with a rounded front; in No. 961 to 980 (built 2011—2012) the windows and headlights were modified and the front air intake omitted.[2] From No. 941 the final assembly took place at the Gia Lâm works of Vietnam Railways.

Accidents and incidents

On 10 March 2015 locomotive №968 was written off in an accident near Dien Sanh when it was in collision with a lorry on a level crossing.
