IE seek to procure new bolsters and bogies for the 071 locomotive fleet. The
071 fleet consists of eighteen (18) locomotives, primarily used for freight
services on the Irish Rail network. These locomotives are a 6 axle
configuration, originally supplied by General Motors Electromotive Division in
1976 and classified as EMD JT22CW series diesel-electric locomotives.
The bogies and bolsters are of cast steel construction and support safety critical
bogie components such as brake gear, traction motors, wheel gear and
suspension equipment. The locomotives accumulate less than 80 000 km with
the bogies and bolsters subject to a heavy maintenance overhaul approximately
every 6-8 years.
IE require that the complete fleet requirement of 36 bogies and 36 bolsters be
spread out evenly over a five (5) year period and that orders be delivered in a
minimum quantity of two (2) bogies and two (2) bolsters at a time.
