In the second half of the 19th century, the plant began to build locomotives, cars, riverboats and traction engines.

In the first years of Soviet power the plant manufactured (in small quantities) locomotives, wagons, streetcars and diesel engines.

At the end of 1934 Kolomna Locomotive Works laid down three submarines of the Shchuka class under the numbers 313, 314 and 315.

These were completed in the spring of 1937 and towed to the "Red Sormovo" factory in Nizhny Novgorod (presumably along the Oka River).

The locomotive, with a commemorative inscription, is now in the museum at Varshavsky railway station, St. Petersburg.

The second locomotive, also with a commemorative inscription, is located in Novosibirsk museum of railway equipment.
