China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation Dalian Co Ltd prepared 15 diesel-electric to be delivered to recently.
With a maximum speed of 100 kilometers per hour, the fifteen high-end locomotives have upgraded brake systems and improved energy conservation.
In addition, a joint venture with investment by CRRC Dalian and a New Zealand company has been set up to provide technical and maintenance services for the locomotives in New Zealand.
In 2009, a contract for 20 locomotives was signed between CRRC Dalian and New Zealand, which marked the first entry of China-made locomotives into a developed country. CRRC Dalian has exported 48 locomotives to New Zealand over the past ten years.
CRRC Dalian also has contracts in Malaysia, Nigeria and Ethiopia.
