I read 2 articles on these switchers. 1. Was a piece written in the L.A. Times that talked mostly about the MK1200G. (The natural gas version). I did not write down the date or Author. It was on Micro-fish at my local library. 2. Was a Article written in a book titled The American Diesel Locomotive by Brian Solomon Published by MBI Publishing. The actual article is on page 164 Titled Houstons Switchers on the Prowl by Sean Graham-White. In the article he mentioned that PTRA got rid of 30 old road units and purchased 24 MK1500D's. It was said that PTRA saved over 600,000 gallons of fuel in the first year. <br /> TIM A
