LOS ANGELES/LONG BEACH, CA - Pacific Harbor Line, Inc. (PHL) has awarded a $21 million contract to MotivePower Inc., a subsidiary of Wabtec Corporation (NYSE: WAB), to supply 16 "clean-diesel" locomotives in 2007 for use at the California ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.

The remanufactured locomotives will be equipped with new 2,000 h.p. diesel engines from Detroit Diesel that exceed U.S. Environmental Protection Agency "Tier 2" standards to reduce air pollutants. One-half the cost will be paid by PHL with the balance shared among the Port of Los Angeles, Port of Long Beach, and the South Coast Air Quality Management District.

"Pacific Harbor Line is investing $10 million to do its part to help reduce air emissions in the busiest port area in America," says PHL President Andrew Fox.

MotivePower's Boise, Idaho facility will remanufacture 14 six-axle and 2 four-axle locomotives, which will be equipped with state-of-the-art electronic control equipment provided by Q-Tron, another Wabtec subsidiary.

"Wabtec is pleased to be part of this major initiative to replace PHL's existing fleet with environmentally friendly locomotives," said Albert J. Neupaver, president and chief executive officer of Wabtec.

Pacific Harbor Line, an affiliate of Anacostia & Pacific Company, Inc. provides railroad switching services to the
Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles and also dispatches all BNSF Railway and Union Pacific trains within the ports.
