These Algerian locomotives look a bit exotic. The front is almost like in a German electric locomotive but all the rest is like from a huge US style diesel - which it actually is. It is a six axles type built by General Motors in USA. Algerian SNTF has 14 of them and they were delivered since 2008. Its power rating is 2574 kW and top speed is 160 km/h. It's a dieselelectric machine.
