Combustion engines with self-ignition of rail vehicles, due to the good points that
they have, still remain the main source of drive of such type vehicles. However, the
harmful effect on natural environment of these engines is significant. In Poland
many types of combustion traction vehicles, whose engines often do not meet the
requirements of limits for toxicity of exhaust gas, are operated. The article presents
the currently used systems and assemblies allowing to reduce the negative
impact of combustion traction vehicles on the environment.
