@@fastcsx1412 you must be right I'm a Regional truck driver and yesterday I saw the FEC LNG unit outside of a town called Dequincy, La. It was in the siding facing west on KCS line that heads into Tx. U.P & KCS lines meet there and run southwest into Tx. & it was the same lashup
Probably not a slug. FEC uses some Natural Gas powered locomotives. Link below is to "Railway Age" from Nov 2017 - lots of pictures of the LNG fuel tender. Sure looks like what is in the video.... www.railwayage.com/mechanical/locomotives/fec-rolls-out-lng/
Interesting catch thanks for posting it. Have a great day everyone
Texas, how cool is that!!
How and why did it end up all the way out there? Did it get tired of florida?
GE transportation has a facility in Fort Worth, TX not as big as the one in Erie, Pa. It probably was getting repaired
Worldwide Handcannon they where testing LNG up north to see how it can preform
@@fastcsx1412 okay that makes sense

For anyone interested,they sound the same as a diesel powered unit.
FEC owns 23 LNG/Diesel engines that slug holds the LNG.
🤔 Interesting.
Excellent Video
🇮🇳🚂🚂
Why would a FEC engine need a fuel tender. There are no long distant runs in Florida. That is an expensive load.
It is one of the great catches of all time. Right place at
the right time.
They run on LNG.
They run on LNG instead of diesel.
👍👍👍👍
