%X The purpose of this paper is to make a comparative analysis on the influence of the aerodynamic drag, in case of the electric rail vehicles for a series of situations encountered in exploitation. The article presents experimental results obtained following a geometric modelling at scale 1: 12, on a modular model for the electric locomotives LE 060EA 5100kW and LE-MA 060 TransMontana 6000kW. Tests were made at INCAS (National Institute for Aerospace Research ˇ°ElieCarafoliˇ±) in the subsonic wind tunnel.
