In the yard I worked at, we had a 100' set of jumper cables so we could jump from another unit in the consist. We also had a flashing light on a temp switch set at 40 deg. F. . When it went off we were running around starting everything that would run. If not we would kick open the drain valves and dump the water. The only units that I know of that use antifreeze are true MAC90's and AC6000's.
