mark1447 Posted February 3, 2011 Share #5 Posted February 3, 2011 The black doesn't look bad even tho I would of like to see a video of F40 in this celebration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgedPolaris Posted February 4, 2011 Share #6 Posted February 4, 2011 Wow, that Phase 3 scheme is nice and bold IMO. It's lines just suit the Genesis so much better than the current paint. Too bad they aren't redressing any AEM-7s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theaveragejoe Posted February 4, 2011 Share #7 Posted February 4, 2011 I hope one of these come up here in NorthEast USA, can't keep em' all down there in South and/or Western USA... Im sure Amtrak will try and send them across the system at least once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregorygrice Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share #8 Posted February 4, 2011 The black doesn't look bad even tho I would of like to see a video of F40 in this celebration. The F40 hasn't come out yet. I eager to see it too. Hopefully its a working F40 and not one of the ones that were converted to baggage/Cab cars.

gregorygrice Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share #9 Posted February 4, 2011 Sorry for the double post but I just read that the F40 being used will be an actual working one that has been saved in one of amtrak's Yards! "On May 7, a 40th anniversary exhibit train will debut for National Train Day in Washington, D.C. The anniversary exhibit, which will travel across the country for a year, will feature two locomotives with historic paint schemes and renovated baggage cars to display memorabilia such as vintage advertising, past menus, dinnerware, period uniforms and photographs from each of the past four decades. In spring, a website will be launched with historical information, anniversary event schedule, photo archive and videos." http://www.progressiverailroading.com/news/article/Amtrak-announces-40th-anniversary-activities-adds-Cascades-WiFi-service--25672 Here's some more photos I found on the internet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregorygrice Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share #18 Posted February 24, 2011 It was on the Sunset Limited and it split a truck in half killing the driver. The damage to the engine included the plow and the engineer side ladder were damaged. It's still in L.A. Here is more from this site. http://www.railroadforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35234 The unit is seen here, on the "Sunset Limited" (train #1) in Los Angeles on February 20th, 2011 http://rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=2414235 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
