If You are using the Conrail SD70, you just pull into the white fuel station and it will reload on its own. PM me if you need to know more!
In survayer when your selecting locos or rolling stock there is a ? mark on the bottem right, click that, then click your SD70's, a little pop up shows and you click on diesel load and put the amount in or sand load.
Edit:
I took some screenshots incase you where not sure what I was on about
That will help if you want to use them on routes with no refuelling depot, you also need to start the locomotives, easiest way is to get the AI to start all locomotives.

click in the drivers picture and click navigate too and click diesel refueling depot track 1. thats it
Check your resources in set-up in Surveyor....
In Surveyor, check all locations & your Driver Command List before you go into Driver.
You enable the loco to be refueled....if you have time on the route to refuel...
I set all of the World of Trainz locos up with fuel & sand before I start.
The World of Trainz locomotives are set up to see if you can save a nominal amount of fuel to get the train over the grade without stalling for fuel....
That's a challenge for the Mountain Pushers to get a train over the grade on a given amount of fuel with reserve to make it back to the fuel island for servicing without need of a rescue.
They will work dead in tow, but why? If you need extra power to get them back to the fuel island, how much reserve power would you need?
If a locomotive hits the fuel island, it is topped-off...
Low fuel reserves onboard reduce the total tractive effort(TE).

Thank you everyone for the feedback. To no avail I've tried everything that you all have suggested but have not been able to fuel up the the SD70 loco. I have even unistalled and reinstalled 3 times but that did not work either. I even downloaded a fresh copy of TS2009 from Auran. I hope a patch to fix this problem will be available soon.
Trackman,
All three of Phil_C's SD70's in TS2009 are busted. They work great in TRS2006. I'm talking about these locos:
L SD70 Conrail Quality NS PRR,<kuid2:86105:5492:1>
L SD70 Illinois Central Gulf AirC,<kuid2:86105:5494:1>
L SD70 Norfolk Southern PRR,<kuid2:86105:5498:1>
The fuel and run session is therefore, also busted. Read this link:

When you run the session in TS2009 you'll notice the SD70 has no wheels and the blinking gold button in the lower right says there are errors which a click shows script problems. Here is a picture of the error.

I can't access linked thread content because I said have not sufficient privileges :-?????
Could anyone repost here what is said in the linked thread? Thanks
From the linked thread:
"Hello Bob
Someone said that if you set the compatibility mode in surveyor then they show up fine. I don't know what Auran did to the locomotives but the script in the trucks crashes as well as the library script, the refueling depot script and the driver command script. The funny thing is if I import copies of the ones I originally supplied to Auran and commit them then they work fine. If someone had of told me they were not working when the Beta testing was happening I may have updated them. I did not even know they would be included with TS2009 as they were removed from all the TC versions.
Regards
Phil"
"They" are working on getting those engines to work in SP2 for 2009. Good Luck.
