The XRB class are a class of diesel locomotives built by Pacific National in 2005/06.

The class are primarily used as middle units on standard gauge interstate freight trains. Hostlers controls are fitted for moving the locomotive about yards and depots, but on the main line they must be led by a locomotive with a conventional driving cab.

[On] reducing illegitimacy ... the state will use ... funds for programs to reduce out-of-wedlock pregnancies, to promote adoption, to establish and operate children’s group homes, to establish and operate residential group homes for unwed mothers, or for any purpose the state deems appropriate. None of the taxpayer funds may be used for abortion services or abortion counseling.”
