About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

CSX partnered with Wabtec in 2021 to modernize its locomotive fleet, including Tier 4 switcher upgrades and digital technologies for fuel efficiency. The program delivers up to 20% fuel efficiency improvement and 90% emissions reduction for switchers, with reductions of as much as 250 tons of CO2 per locomotive per year. Evidence: "These modernizations are reducing the carbon footprint by as much as 250 tons of CO2 per locomotive per year." — https://www.wabteccorp.com/newsroom/press-releases/csx-and-wabtec-partner-to-drive-sustainable-transportation-solutions
