@ Ham549 Wow! Interesting taste-choice of music for this montage of videos. I love it ) So those F40PH Motive Power Cabs move you; that's great! I like them, as well. Thank-you for the video upload; ( and also for taking the time to get all of the different analog format to get up on this Digital as well; that had to be some undertaking. ) It's wonderful; Thank~you , again.
I'm smiling, (two F40 's head to back), they're so boxxy; they can do it.
@thefridge991 The F40PH is one of my favorite locomotives used by Amtrak. I also like the steam engine train as well. I love trains because they are fun to ride. I am thinking about being a conductor for Amtrak one day.
@rd1027 Yes CSX borrowed some F40's from Amtrak to haul there business train, they liked them so much they traded Amtrak some switchers locomotives for them.
@Ham549 So anyway, are these all your clips? ( I know a couple are from tv) just curious I'm from the Boston area and I see a couple of shots from around here/ Cape Cod area but some are definitely out west.
@maxm2317 That is based on a meme from the show Azumanga. The original clip had her kick off her show and it lands on a truck that carries it away, it has been re-edited from everything to a F40PH to the shoe setting off a nuclear explosion.
On the positive side the F40 won't likely be extinct. There will still be a few around. Problem for Amtrak (and for transit agencies) is that government funding guidelines often force them to get rid of obsolete equipment, although they often have the option of designating a few pieces (locos, cars, buses) for historical or public exhibit events. From a bean counter's point of view, it's not practical.
These locomotives are awesome. I see those f*ckin "cabbages" and I can't help but get a little depressed that Amtrak decided to mutilate this great locomotive in a way.
@dkslfjgh You haven't seen the photos of what happened to most of the Amtrak ones, They were torn up into 3foot by 3foot sections and dumped in a pile at Beach Grove. That is why The F40PH Preservation Society was formed to help preserve these locomotives.
do you know where the Maine Eastern F40s went. I believe they were ex amtrak. They got rid of them 'cause they were too loud and replaced them with 2 FL9s.
Actually the F40's basic carbody design is a modification of the 1973 EMD SDP40F. I'm amazed at all the hoopla, but the F40 is basically a modified GP40-2 with a carbody. The original cowl nose was simplified to cut costs, though there were a few non-Amtrak F40s that had the FP45 styled nose. I first saw the F40 in 1981. Took a long time for them to grow on me as I preferred the graceful lines of the SDP40f and P30CH. Nice to know that a few F40s will be preserved. .
MBTA has 18 straight F40PHs. The others are F40PH-2Cs built by EMD. The -2C locos are longer to accomodate another engine to provide power to the coaches so it uses less fuel than running it off the main engine.
F40PHM-2Cs were "knockoffs" that MBTA ordered because EMD was busy making freight units at the time.
1006 has died on it's "maiden voyage" after coming back from Pan Am. It was hooked up to 1015 just in case and the engine shut off and the crank case button popped. (as reported by one of the conductors working that train)
