I have read that when diesel locomotives are shut down in cold weather the water must be drained out of the engine and radiators. Is this always the case? Why is this? Obviously, water freezing in the engine would be disastrous. Is anti-freeze not used in diesel engines? If not, why not? I have only seen this mentioned when talking about EMD engines, is this not a problem for GE engines because they are 4 cycle and EMD’s are 2 cycle? <br /> <br />Thanks for helping me understand this. <br />
