In order to ascertain a suitable oil-change interval for the higher grade diesel engine oils introduced on diesel railcars, we investigated their durability through field test and then examined the condition of the engines. Based on the test results, we verified that their introduction has enabled oil-change intervals to be extended from the current 20-35, 000 km to 45, 000 km, while keeping good conditions inside the engine.
