Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method of operating an engine having exhaust gas recirculation from an exhaust manifold of the engine to an intake manifold of the engine, the engine in a locomotive or other vehicle car body, the engine further having an intake system turbocharger with an air-cooled intercooler, the method including cooling the exhaust gas recirculation via a first airflow generated by car body motion, cooling compressed engine induction air in the air-cooled intercooler via a second airflow, and cooling the exhaust gas recirculation via the second airflow.
