I don't think an electric motor has any more torque per se than a gasoline or diesel loco at a given rpm.    A transmission allows the operator to adjust the motor torque to the required speed/load.

The WHOLE point in using electric motors in final drive for the propulsion of heavy equipment is that by using volts/amps via an electric motor, you are essentially giving the vehicle an infinitely variable transmission.
