About this opportunity
The Connecticut Department of Transportation is issuing an RFI on dual-mode locomotives (catenary AC/diesel propulsion) and alternative propulsion technologies, with responses due June 30, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. EST. This is an information-gathering phase intended to inform technical specifications; no formal proposals, pricing, or pre-qualification for future bidding are solicited.
The RFI addresses 36 questions covering propulsion technologies, energy sources, emissions standards, safety features, regulatory compliance, manufacturing capabilities, and historical performance. All vendors and locomotive manufacturers are eligible to respond. CTDOT notes that an RFP is anticipated for early 2027 and that responses will inform specifications for dual-mode locomotive procurement for the Northeast United States.
Responses must be submitted via email to dot.trains@ct.gov. Vendor questions are accepted through June 30 at 4:00 p.m. EST; process inquiries should be directed to Marci.Petterson@ct.gov with a copy to Ramzee.Beyah@ct.gov. CTDOT reserves the right to revise the RFI through addenda posted to CTSource. Confidential information clearly marked as such will be treated confidentially. Respondents are instructed not to contact CTDOT personnel other than those designated for inquiries. No site visits or bidder's conferences are scheduled.
