CN was in a test program with a twin SD40-2w set, with a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) tank tender, between the two locos. The units would run on 100 percent diesel from idle to notch 3 .. then gradually increase LNG in the prime mover to a 90 / 10 percent mix of LNG and diesel at full throttle. This was between Edmonton Alberta's Walker Yard (where I work as a locomotive engineer) and Lac La Biche in northern Alberta .. Per Ken King.
