How often does NS buy new locomotives?
|
NS has been buying new AC power for several years now and, in fact, have 47 Tier IV GE's slated to be delivered either by the end of the year or starting to receive them by the end of the year.
|
They currently have an order in for 50 new locomotives, 47 Tier IV Gevo's as well as 3 credit units. However, it is more economical for the railroad to rebuild older power, such as these ex-UP 90MAC's.
