Bob.

I think you may be right about the 149 DD. I am now thinking that the Budd cars had 6-110 DD laid on their side. Some of the cars had two engines and others only one. The single units were usually put in trains with four or more cars and were positioned at the front and rear. On the Boston and Maine RR, they always fired up every engine and they were never shut down even on weekends. EPA would never let that happen now-a-days. The yard in Lowell probably consumed 1000-2000 gals of idling fuel per weekend. I think they were concerned that they might not start on Monday.
