<p>Sorry I don't have results of the FEC tests.</p> <p>I think LNG is more an economical than an ecological question for the railroads. With the diesel price much lower than a few year ago it has become quite calm about LNG at the Class 1 RR.</p> <p>FEC is better of as it hasn't to build a refueling infrastructure havin a LNG plant in Miami.</p> <p>I assume the the FEC ES44C4 Tier 3 locomotives were rebuilt with GE's NextFuel (TM) natural gas refitting kit.</p> <p>GE states in a video on its website that with this kit locomotives are Tier 3 compliant. That doesn't totally exclude Tier 4 but we need to see.</p> <p>I hope I have reaped enough contradiction for others the chime in. [;)]<br />Regards, Volker</p>
