00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
The main air reservoirs store compressed air for later use by the locomotive.

00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:11,292
The locomotive has two 22.5-inch diameter x 78-inch long reservoirs.

00:00:11,292 --> 00:00:17,375
The two reservoirs store about 56,000 cubic inches of air at main reservoir pressure.

4
00:00:17,375 --> 00:00:21,667
Each reservoir is tilted to allow moisture to accumulate at one end.

5
00:00:21,667 --> 00:00:32,208
An automatic or manual, customer-specific, blow-down device (“spitter” type drain valve) is installed at the low end of each reservoir to expel the moisture.
