Les locomotives de mines constituent le premier élément de la traction souterraine mécanique. Elles sont de deux types principaux : 1) les locomotives automotrices, c'est-à-dire produisant elles-mêmes leur propre énergie motrice (locomotives à moteur à combustion interne et, dans un certain sens, locomotives à batteries d'accumulateurs); 2) les locomotives dépendant de l'énergie extérieure comme les locomotives électriques à trolley. 2, record 2, French, - locomotive%20de%20mine
