The first hybrid electric switching locomotive was introduced in 2004 by Railpower Technology and called the "Green Goat." It replaced the 1,750 hp diesel engine in a General Motors locomotive with a 290 hp diesel generator and 60,000 pounds of lead-acid batteries that offered a combined power output of 2,000 horsepower. The Green Goat's core strengths were a that compared favorably with the $1.5 million price of a new switching unit and a battery dominant hybrid electric drive promised fuel savings of 40% to 60%. Subsequently, Railpower launched a smaller version called the "Green Kid" that offered a combined power output of 1,000 horsepower.

But perhaps the best reason of all why the GWPF should never have to name its donors is this one, as advanced by Bishop Hill on Twitter:

"We must change attitudes of male-dominated police departments throughout the world who place this type of a crime at the lowest level of their law enforcement priorities," he said.
