Dual Mode Locomotives

The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is seeking input from locomotive manufacturers and suppliers for the development of a technical specification for a dual-mode locomotive (catenary AC/diesel) and the evaluation of alternative propulsion technologies. The project involves the creation of a technical specification and the consideration of different propulsion technologies. Key aspects of the project include: * Development of a technical specification for a dual-mode locomotive * Evaluation of alternative propulsion technologies * Input from locomotive manufacturers and suppliers * The project is being led by the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT)
