[quote user="YoHo1975"]I didn't think it needed to be Tier 4. Why would it be any different from the other repowers? Amtrak California already has repowered F59s, so it's a known quantity.[/quote] EPA distinguishes between freshly manufactured (new or rebuilt with less 25% worth of used parts), refurbished (25-50% worth of new parts), and remanufactured. There are too many additional requirements to name here. Depending on the grade of rebuilt the emission limits are different. Since 2015 freshly manufactured and refurbished line-haul locomotive must be Tier 4 compliant. For remanufactured line-haul locomotive all depends on year of original manufacture. A remanufactured F59PHI needs to be Tier 1+ compliant. So all depends on the scope of the rebuilding program. But quite likely it will fall into the refurbished category needing Tier 4 compliance.
