The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is seeking sources for the installation of locomotive ditch lights and a speedometer on locomotive USAF 1671 at Ft Eustis, VA. The vendor will be required to install light mounts, housing, bulbs, run conduit, wire, and install switch gear for the ditch lights, as well as fabricate a mount for an axle driven generator, provide wiring and conduit to connect the generator to the speedometer drive and then to the speedometer head. The speedometer must be calibrated and operationally checked. Interested parties should submit capability statements with product data sheets by September 13, 2024.
