Abstract

The contribution of leading home engineers and scientists in locomotive construction industry is determined in the article. History of creation the basic types of locomotives, which were used on territory of Ukraine and in the Russian Empire, is shown. Reasons of new types of locomotives creation and also modernization of already existing ones are listed in the article. Activity of home engineers in locomotive construction industry is analyzed. The main directions of locomotive constructions in the Russian Empire are highlighted. There is a description of basic stages of home locomotive constructions in the article. Also the evaluation of scientific works from well known scientists and engineers worked in locomotive construction industry is present in the article, and also it is analyzed and reflected, that except positive things during creation of more powerful locomotives, there were many defects that had been found only during exploitation of new types of locomotives on the railways of the Russian Empire.
