The EP200 ({{langx|ru|ЭП200}}) passenger AC electric locomotive has {{convert|8000|kW|hp|-1}} of power and design speed of up to {{convert|200|km/h|mph}}. The underframe with two unique four-axle wheel trucks coupled with support - frame suspension of commutator-less motors and traction gear boxes (two-level bogie swing suspension with cylindrical spiral springs and hydraulic oscillation dampers) ensure high riding properties and dynamic characteristics of the EP200 Passenger Electric Locomotive.{{cite web|url=http://oldeng.tmholding.ru/work/catalog/1779/1780/1786|access-date=2011-09-01|title=EP200 Express Passenger Locomotive|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111128085606/http://oldeng.tmholding.ru/work/catalog/1779/1780/1786|archive-date=2011-11-28}}
