History of the SM31 locomotive

The SM31 class was designed as a heavy diesel locomotive for demanding shunting tasks and industrial service. Its high tractive effort made it suitable for ports, marshalling yards and industrial sidings.

During Era IV, SM31 locomotives played an important role in modernising shunting operations within PKP, gradually replacing steam locomotives in heavy yard service.
