Is the lead locomotive powered my Detroit diesel ? Reason being ...way back in the early 90's Republic locomotive entered the power market. With Detroit diesel powered locomotives. Doesn't sound like either EMD,GE or Alco. What it does sound like is a Detroit and it sounds pretty damn good.

SEPTA does a lot of stuff that we don't know about and that's one of the cool things about them. They have a lot of VERY HEAVY equipment that we rarely see. I love SEPTA.

Never mind my previous comment! Just read the description! So, the cab units are used for... Power cars, or for reverse moves?

On SEPTA they once had gel dispensing equipment installed but now that job is done by equipment on the flat car, so they are just cab cars. 1803 was the power on one of the gel trains.

I can't believe they converted two LIRR power cars into MOW cars...sheesh...and I thought they couldn't get any more downgraded/derated...

gel trains?
Disturbnthapeace 3 years ago
During the fall, SEPTA runs washer/gel trains that use high pressure water spray to clean slippery leaf debris and oil off the rail head and dispense a traction-increasing gel to help their sander-less MU fleet get a grip.

Go to my videos and search MOW, you will find ballast trains, rail trains, rail scrubbers and others.
