Thank you CSXT8390 for the information your insight is greatly appreciated.CSXT8390 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2024 7:28 pm"Servicing" for the engines while out at the plant in West Olive typically just means cleaning them and emptying the rail pail. If they need mechanical services or a quarterly inspection, they have to get sent out to a shop. Oddly enough, they were due to get sent out later this week or next week to get swapped out. A lot of people don't realize locomotives don't use coolant, just straight water. When it gets cold, the engines stay running to keep the water from freezing. If they fail to restart for some reason, there is a plug called a "guru plug" that is designed to fail open and dump the water to prevent it from freezing in the engine block.

CSX engine #8066 + 12 cars.
