Please don't forget the United Aircraft gas turbines that PC, Amtrak, CN, and VIA ran. Also the French gas turbines Amtrack ran and the American copies made later, which the state of NY now owns and is in a fight with Amtrak over the operation. Also Long Island ran a combination gas turbine, 3rd rail electric in the late 1970s early 1980s that was workable but not successful enough to repeat. <br /> <br />Also the "Blue Goose" that Westinghouse built and demonstrated in the 1950s was a gas turbine electric. It was a B+B-B+B like many of the GEs. It operated on a number of railroads before being withdrawn from service.
