Abstract
An energy efficient locomotive according to the disclosure utilizes a companion generator operably associated with a prime mover engine and electrically independent from a main generator. The companion generator is connected directly to a DC to DC regulator and is configured to supply a DC output to the DC to DC regulator for providing power for non-propulsion electrical devices when the locomotive is coasting or braking and the prime mover engine and main generator are not providing electrical power to the traction motor.
