Other than noting that the railroad is slow to join the 21st century, what's your point? We should take our oil, spin out the crud, and then add additives? Sounds very similar to just changing the oil?
The amount of oil they are dealing with may have more weight in the equation than whether their process works well.
Eh I wouldn't say that - he's talking about an oil separator, and many truckers and even commercial HD truck guys use them on their rigs to extend the OCI.
And no, I wouldn't say railroads are slow to the 21st century.
The new Tier IV-emissions-compliant GE locomotives exceed next-gen emissions standards with zero urea after-treatment systems and are a marvel of modern engineering, 4400hp and still beating all prior efficiency records (something many thought would be impossible and almost sent rival EMD into bankruptcy).
