This report documents an energy audit of the Boston and Maine Railroad performed in support of a joint Government/industry program to determine means of conserving energy on railroads without reducing safety or service quality. Phase I of the energy audit involved acquisition and analysis of energy-related data for the month of December 1979 to determine energy supply and use patterns on the B&M and identify major areas of energy use for conservation emphasis. Phase II involved more detailed analysis of additional diesel fuel data for the months of December 1979 through August 1980 to assist in identifying and evaluating conservation options for freight train operations.
