3TE116UM 🇲🇳
A massive heavy container train, powered by a triple-headed 2TE116UM locomotive consist, climbs the gradient toward Khonkhor Pass under the bright spring sun. Captured on a crystal-clear morning along the central stretch of the Trans-Mongolian Railway, this moment showcases the raw power and endurance of the 2TE116UM in multiple-unit formation, built for the steep gradients and tough terrain of Mongolia.
📍 Photographed during our recent group tour with Japanese railfans, this scene is a perfect example of heavy-haul railroading at its finest in the heart of Central Asia.
