The Tram man Posted March 15, 2011 Share #8 Posted March 15, 2011 It's arrived, it's arrived, it's arrived! Sigh. I guess the ALP44s are now one step closer to retirement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is a long way to go before this thing hits service. I suppose its time to get them ALP-44s or whatever these 45s are replacing while we still can. I know I will!

The closest thing i can get are the RC engines we have on "this side of the pond" and they'll be around for quite some time to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amtrak7 Posted March 15, 2011 Share #11 Posted March 15, 2011 Unfortunately, 4501 will be sent right to Pueblo for testing. Revenue service will begin this year, but not until late. Interesting to see what schedule changes NJT will make... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N-Trizzy2609 Posted March 17, 2011 Share #21 Posted March 17, 2011 4500 is actually in the shipment line of the German factory so it on its way soon. It going to test on the RVL and NJCL first then in the summer it might do some ACES testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time it hits ANY line the test at Pueblo will be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsfan Posted March 18, 2011 Share #24 Posted March 18, 2011 I estimate these will enter revenue service in september-october. By that time there will be a steady string of deliveries and we will have a brand new fleet of crazy locomotives never before used in main line service anywhere. I think the only thing crazier than these, to put it in perspective how amazing it is that they pulled this off, is the Chessie M1 steam-electric. Coal fired boiler, makes steam, steam turns turbines, turbines turn generator, generator powers electric motors. Basically diesel electric but coal burning instead. In any case, this locomotive should be celebrated, it is truly a breakthrough, and sets the groundwork for expanded commuter systems. - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
