ABSTRACT:
A retrofit refueling apparatus is shown for use with an overhead fuel manifold of the type used to supply fuel to a locomotive fuel tank. The refueling apparatus includes a movable carriage and a conduit which joins the movable carriage to the primary flow valve of the overhead fuel manifold. A rigid refueling arm communicates with the conduit and runs from the movable carriage to a refueling nozzle. The rigid refueling arm is spring-loaded to a positive angular orientation above the plane of the surrounding substrate.
