Tc is a diesel-hydraulic locomotive used by Banverket of Sweden for line service and snowploughing. Twenty locomotives were built for Statens Järnvägar (SJ) in 1969-71 by Nydquist & Holm for combined freight and snowploughing service, along with 10 larger Tb locomotives. When Banverket was demerged in 1988 the Tc were transferred to it. Since 1994 some of the units have been taken out of service.
