The disclosure an integrated traction system for a locomotive. The system includes a primary electrical energy source, a traction load circuit, an auxiliary load circuit, a common DC link, s secondary electrical energy, and a controller. The electrical energy generated by the primary electrical energy source is shared between the traction load circuit and the auxiliary load circuit during a power mode through the common DC link. Further, the electrical energy form the secondary electrical energy source is supplied to the primary electrically energy source during cranking mode. The controller controls the switching of the integrated traction system between the two modes.
