Over the last decade, an important trend in the U.S. freight railroad industry has been the introduction of "GenSet" locomotives to reduce fuel consumption and air pollution. While a proven technology, widespread use of GenSet locomotives has been slow because of high capital costs compared to the older-technology locomotives that they would replace. A new GenSet locomotive is approximately six times more expensive than the cost of a traditional diesel locomotive in rebuilt condition.
