<p>[quote user="timz"]Looks like one model of 12-cyl C280 is 13+ feet tall overall, which would rule it out. If it's actually 11+ ft, it would still have to sit on a depressed frame between the trucks.[/quote]</p> <p>Here is the data sheet the above C280's dimensions are from: <a href="http://s7d2.scene7.com/is/content/Caterpillar/LEHM7106-01">http://s7d2.scene7.com/is/content/Caterpillar/LEHM7106-01</a></p> <p>Does it fit into a locomotive with a hight limit of 14'-8'' according to Amtrak loading gauge 05-1355? An EMD 710 is just 9' high, a GE Gevo 9'-2''.<br />Regards, Volker</p>
