The TE2 (Cyrillic script: ТЭ2) is a class of Soviet diesel-electric locomotives built by Malyshev Factory in Ukraine from 1948 to 1955. It is nominally a two-unit version of class TE1 (ТЭ1) but is very different in appearance. While the TE1 is a Co-Co hood unit, the TE2 is a Bo-Bo+Bo-Bo cab unit.[1]

Powertrain
Each of the two units is powered by a 736 kW (987 hp; 1,001 PS) Penza D50 4-stroke 6 cylinder supercharged diesel engine and has four 152 kW (204 hp; 207 PS) DC traction motors.
Production
Prototypes were built in 1948 and 1949 and series production ran from 1950 to 1955.[2] A total of 528 pairs was built.[2] Each pair carried a single number in the range 001 to 528.[2]
Preservation
TE2-414 is preserved at the Museum of Railway Technology, Saint Petersburg.
TE4
The TE4 (ТЭ4) was an experimental modification of a TE2, designed to run on solid fuel by using a producer gas system. The gas generator was mounted on a four-axle non-powered unit, placed between the TE2 power units, making a wheel arrangement of Bo-Bo+2-2+Bo-Bo. It was not a success and was converted back to a TE2. See ТЭ4 at the Russian-language Wikipedia.
TE6
The TE6 (ТЭ6) was a class of sixteen TE2-type locomotives ordered by the Ministry of Defence in 1952. They were single-section and their purpose was to serve as locomotives or mobile alternating current generators.[2] They were designed to "meet the requirements of protection against injury factors of a nuclear explosion".

[ru] ТЭ2
ТЭ2 (тепловоз с электрической передачей, 2-я модель, прозвища — Бычок[1], Люська[2], Монголка[2], Фердинанд[2]) — советский восьмиосный двухсекционный (тип 2(20—20)) грузопассажирский тепловоз мощностью 2×1000 л.с., выпускавшийся с 1948 по 1955 гг. на Харьковском заводе транспортного машиностроения при участии Харьковского электротехнического завода (ХЭТЗ). По многим агрегатам унифицирован с выпускавшимся ранее тепловозом ТЭ1, но скомпонован принципиально по-иному. Является первым советским крупносерийным тепловозом (выпущено более тысячи секций) и первым серийным двухсекционным локомотивом с двумя кабинами без площадок в вагонных кузовах на несущих рамах, опирающихся на идентичные тележки — компоновка, унаследованная последующими поколениями советских магистральных локомотивов.Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
