The Shaoshan 9, abbreviated SS9, is a type of electric locomotive used on the national railway system of the People's Republic of China, mainly to pull sub-high-speed passenger trains. It was developed and built by the Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Works and designed for the fifth national railway speedup. Two prototypes were completed on 26 December 1998. Zhuzhou built 43 first-generation SS9 locomotives, and from 2002 a modified version was designed and built, with a total of 173 SS9 locomotives numbered 0004 and 0044 to 0213 recorded as built. SS9-0004 was scrapped and replaced by a new modified locomotive after a derailment accident on 19 November 2004.
