Abstract:
Locomotives comprising a chassis configured for receiving various modules such as, for example, fuel storage modules and/or power modules. By employing a selected combination of fuel storage modules and power modules, a locomotive may be constructed to employ any of one or more types of fuel, such as liquid fuels and gaseous fuels. Batteries may be employed to maximize energy use. Multiple locomotives may function together as a ‘consist’ having differing types of engines and using different types of fuel. A control system may be employed to optimize use of the engines by prioritizing factors such as cost, fuel efficiency, noise reduction, emissions reduction, etc.

Claim (Index 24):
A locomotive comprising:\n one or more power modules, each power module comprising one or more high speed engines operable using gaseous fuel at over 2500 RPM and one or more corresponding high speed generators connected to the one or more high speed engines; one or more fuel modules, each fuel module storing a gaseous fuel and connected to provide the gaseous fuel to one or more of the one or more power modules; an electrical bus for receiving power from each of the one or more power modules and for delivering power to drive the locomotive; and a control system configured to coordinate power output levels from each of the one or more power modules to the electrical bus; wherein the control system is configured to choose a power level of one or more of the power modules of the first subset of power modules and a power level of one or more of the power modules of the second subset of power modules based at least in part on one or more characteristics of the first fuel relative to one or more corresponding characteristics of the second fuel.
