LOCOMOTIVE SERVICES/LOCOMOTIVE SERVICE TRUCKS (LSTs)
The LST's wide range of service functions include:
- Maintain Critical Fluids and Traction Sand - The LST operator can replenish sand, engine water and various oils (engine and governor).
- Perform Informal Inspections - The LST operator can assess various systems in the locomotive. These visual checks provide an informal "extra set of eyes" to identify potential issues and help the railroad as it performs its formal inspections. The operator can also clean oils and other hazards from walkways and repair chains.
- Clean Cabs - The operator can clean windows and mirrors, change cab lights, empty and replace trash bags, sweep the cab and replenish crew packs.
- Service Locomotive Toilets - The LST operator can discharge and recharge toilets, refill water and sanitizer and clean the compartment.
In addition, the LST can jump-start locomotives, remove graffiti and even wash off oil and debris with its hot water power washer.
