Abstract
Comparative analysis of conditions of interaction of locomotive wheels with rails is provided under electric and diesel traction for an open-pit railway transport. A description of conditions that promote the formation of welding bridges (setting) between microbridges of the contacting surfaces is given. Conclusions are drawn on the influence of the interaction modes of locomotive wheels with the rails on their traction ability.
