A hood unit, in North American railroad terminology, is a body style for diesel and electric locomotives where the body is less than full-width for most of its length and walkways are on the outside. In contrast, a cab unit has a full-width carbody for the length of the locomotive and walkways inside. A hood unit has sufficient visibility to be operated in both directions from a single cab. Also, the locomotive frame is the main load-bearing member, allowing the hood to be non-structural and easily opened or even removed for maintenance.

  • Un hood unit (traduisible par « unité à capot »), dans la terminologie ferroviaire d'Amérique du nord, est un type de dessin de locomotive. Sur une hood unit, le corps de la locomotive est majoritairement plus étroit sur sa largeur totale, avec une plateforme de circilation courant le long de la locomotive. Au contraire, une « cab unit » a l'ensemble de sa largeur occupée par le corps de la locomotive. Une hood unit a suffisamment de visibilité pour être pilotée dans les deux sens depuis une unique cabine. Par ailleurs, le châssis est situé intégralement sous la partie à capot, permettant le démontage intégral de celui-ci (car non structurant) pour la maintenance. (fr)
