FRESNO, CA— As the California High Speed Rail Authority just broke ground on the nation’s first high-speed rail system, additional attention is being focused on the fact that some of the world’s most advanced and cleanest diesel equipment will be used to construct the historic project. “While there is a debate on the merits of the high speed rail project in general, one thing that is not in debate is the readiness of the most advanced construction machines and equipment to build the project,” says Allen Schaeffer, the executive director of the Diesel Technology Forum.

“It is fitting that a project of this size will be built with the latest generation of advanced clean diesel technology. This massive project is being done with the most advanced and sustainable green construction practices, which is why the latest clean diesel engines and equipment that meet the nation’s most stringent environmental standards – known as ‘Tier 4′ – are the technology of choice. No other fuel or technology can match the combination of power, efficiency, performance and now near-zero emissions of these machines.
