APPENDICES APPENDIX A Locomotive Remanufacture Mileage Data From AAR, June 1996 (Data for Santa Fe Railway) A-1 APPENDIX B Locomotive Emission Data by Throttle Notch (Note: this appendix not available in electronic version.) B-1 APPENDIX C Calculation of Baseline Locomotive Emission Rates This appendix contains a numerical description of how EPA developed its baseline emission factors. The cycle-weighted emission factors listed here were calculated from the notch data in Appendix B using the respective line-haul or switch duty-cycle. Cycle-weighted horsepower (i.e., the average power used over the cycle) was also calculated. The emission factors were weighted by the product of number of locomotives in the fleet and the average power: ' j (No.)(HP)(EF) EFAVG j (No.)(HP) These weighted average emission factors were multiplied by deterioration factors to be more representative of in-use emissions. The line-haul emissions were determined for two locomotive categories (pre-1991 and 1991-1995) because of the limits of the data set. The emission factors for these two categories were weighted together in the same manner as the individual emission factors.
