Locomotive change
A locomotive or engine change is a location where a locomotive is exchanged for another locomotive.
==History==
For as long as there have been railroads, locomotive changes have been essential to the officials of the railroads, so that a locomotive could be exchanged for the rest of the trip to the next locomotive changing facility or the destination of the train. Without these facilities, locomotives will suffer from wear and tear or in the era of the steam locomotive, the locomotive will not only suffer from wear and tear, but also a lack, of fuel and water. Many of the original locations where steam was exchanged for another steam locomotive for the remainder of the trip, have been closed since diesel locomotives replaced steam locomotives on the point of both freight and passenger trains.
In some cases, an electric locomotive would be replaced by a steam or diesel locomotive for the remainder of the trip. For example, the Pennsylvania Railroad, New York Central Railroad and the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad had locations where electric locomotives were exchanged for steam or diesel locomotives.
