Eugene, Cargill runs two of these installations in CA. Some of the locos are heavily modified Brookvilles, and I believe they have some vulcans as well. Can't be more specific as I can't seem to lay hands on the reference. Interestingly, according to one count (Jay Reed's "Comp. Guide to Industrial Locomotives") there are in excess of fifty locomotive-operated NG industrial lines still working in the U.S.
