The Baltimore and Ohio and six eastern railroads back coal powered turbine research to rival diesel engines. Maryland engineer-physicist TL Yellett leads the effort with coal atomization, jet-like combustion, and cyclone dust separators to protect turbine blades. Tests expected this summer to prove the concept's viability and cost advantages.
