(The bill has passed...) The preservation of working tier 0 or 1 CA passenger trains is now illegal.

The bill has unfortunately passed. Get ready to only be allowed to save NPCU's in CA from now on.. or fly to the IRM ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Original description: By making this video I intend to bring light to recent legislation in the state of California which will make it significantly more difficult for museums or other transit agencies to obtain surplus, and potentially historic, diesel locomotives. I apologize for the clickbait-esque thumbnail but I have the wholehearted belief these machines should not go to waste and deserve a second chance at life when their time for retirement comes. Please also note that I AM NOT A LEGAL EXPERT, and SOME OF THE INFORMATION PRESENTED ABOUT CERTAIN LOCOMOTIVES MAY BE INCORRECT as I'm unable to obtain current, inside information like a certain engine's emissions tier at this time. READ THE BILL FOR YOURSELF: https://legiscan.com/CA/text/SB30/2025 If you are in california and are of interest, or even in the position, to add an affected locomotive to the collection or fleet of a railroad museum or startup passenger railroad, PLEASE WRITE YOUR ASSEMBLYPERSON! Let them know you'd like to see more leniency provided to tier 0 or 1 locomotives entering into a second life!
