EMD's test train rolls east at track speed on the approach to the Blue Mountain grade crossing. EMD engineers got the information they needed from testing between Tabernash and East Portal. Hopefully, the tests showed the results they were hoping for and EMD will soon be able to put the unit into production. EMD hasn't sold a new unit in the United States since the start of 2015 due to the Tier-4 emissions regulations!
