Unit reported by Railpower to be for Lubrizoil, reporting marks LZRX. Presume this will ship with RPRX reporting marks as Bechtel 2000 did, and also as the Modoc Rail Academy unit will.

Lubrizoil is an industrial plant in Houston, TX. Lubrizoil in Deer Park (a suburb of Houston) is served by Railserve SW1200 RSS 2269. No idea why they decided to go with their own unit here.
