 Post subject: Napa Wine Train fuel
PostPosted: Mon Sep 09, 2002 12:42 pm 

Some years ago, the Napa Wine Train was going to experiment with compressed natural gas as a fuel for its Alcos, to appease NIMBYs along the track. Did they ever do that?

Better yet, what about bio-diesel? It's even more NIMBY-friendly (no dangerous flammable gas under pressure).
