Amtrak Locomotive F69PHAC

Not knowingly…[;)] E’port didn’t exactly do any real engineering when the slid the HEP in place of the steam genny and opened up the whole fuel tank for fuel. But they were that heavy when Juniata got them in for rebuilding. I know, because I did the weight balance on the rebuilt units and we got scale weights on the first one as received.

I could hardly believe it, myself.

Ugh. NJDOT strikes again. Say no more.

Sad how NJDOT goes from bad to worse by opening up MMC, too. I’ve heard too many stories of them putting equipment back out on the road unrepaired.

No, I got that, the problem is that I wasn’t criticizing Amtrak, so I didn’t understand whyyou were pointing this out in the first place.

It was suggested that to rebuild Amtrak’s fleet could require begging for money from the federal government. My point was that Amtrak exists at the behest of the Federal Government. Everything they do is based on requesting Tax Payer dollars. I was simply Clarifying in response to a previous post.

No big deal
