California takes aim at freight train emissions, bans non-electric train engines
Fox News
California's government announced Thursday it would be the first state in the country to curb freight train emissions, banning non-electric train engines by 2030.
"Locomotives are a key part of California’s transportation network, and it’s time that they are part of the solution to tackle pollution and clean our air," CARB Chair Liane Randolph said in a statement Thursday. "With the new regulation, we are moving toward a future where all transportation operations in the state will be zero emissions." Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
Under the regulation, California will ban any locomotive engine that was constructed more than 23 years ago by 2030. And the rule would require all new switch, industrial and passenger locomotives to be zero-emissions while in California beginning in 2030 and 2035 for freight line haul.
