Simple, sustainable and efficient locomotives.
The LEAF® Locomotive’s single and double engine models were created specifically for port, mining, industrial in-plant and commercial yard switching (shunting) applications. These Gen-Set Locomotives maximize tractive effort while minimizing fuel costs and emissions.
The Leaders in Fuel Efficiency
The LEAF® locomotive is designed to minimize fuel usage, reduce emissions, and exceed
the performance of a conventional locomotive. LEAF® locomotives have been in operation since 2008.
Fuel consumption in comparable operating circumstances results in a 72.5% savings in fuel costs.
So Much to Love About the LEAF® Locomotive
LEAF® locomotives are built with readily available parts, making future maintenance easy and cost effective. Plus, operation of the LEAF is nearly indistinguishable for crews accustomed to widely used SW or GP-type locomotives.
LEAF® locomotives reduce NOx emissions and particulate matter by 92% and 99% respectively and meet EPA emissions standards for Tier IV diesel engines.
The LEAF® locomotives reduce fuel consumption 45–72% over a conventional locomotive. For every 50 gallons (189.3 liters) per day of diesel not burned, the LEAF reduces GHG by 400,000 lbs. (181,437 kg) per year.
