The LECT uses emission rates based on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Locomotive Engine Standards, as well as other data sources. The tool can provide users with estimates of emission reductions for projects that replace diesel engines with newer versions or with alternative- fuel engines, including all-electric locomotives.\" Quote from https://railroads.dot.gov/elibrary/locomotive-emissions-comparison-tool-user-guide
