QUOTE: Originally posted by Randy Stahl So far everything that was said is correct. I recall waiting for a BN train in Minneapolis to pull for 24 hours. The trainmaster would not reduce the train of 126 cars, 2 crews spent thier entire shifts trying to get an air test. I have seen a new antifreeze formulated for locomotives, the only catch is the seals and gaskets on the prime mover need to be changed, the older material would break down quickly causing leaks into the crankcase. Good way to trash an engine . Randy
