Abstract: A method for predicting a low battery voltage condition includes calculating a minimum battery capacity required to start an engine, determining a first capacity of a battery at a first time, determining a second capacity of the battery at a second time, and predicting, based on the first and second determined capacities, when a remaining capacity of the battery will be less than the minimum battery capacity. A control system programmed with the above method and a locomotive included the programmed control system are also described herein.
