Abstract
Our team worked with Norfolk Southern Railway to optimize their locomotive fueling policy. We implemented a simulation based
optimization model which gave an immediate value added of $8 million annually. A recommendation for future changes allows Norfolk
Southern to increase their potential savings to $29 million.
