This will enable the Raritan Valley, North Jersey Coast (Trains beginning from Bay Head), Morris and Essex/Montclair-Boonton (Trains beginning at Hackettstown), Main/Bergen County, and Pascack Valley Line Trains to go into NY Penn Station when AMTRAK completes the Tunnel in 2018.
Nice Engine, now Raritan Valley trains have full access to NYC. This is truely the future of locomotive technology, just hope it's performance is better than the PL42AC's.
i love how companies working with a deficet complains they need funding but the first thing they do is purchase $200 million worth of locomotives. kinda stupid really.
They could get away with about 16 units, but any more than that is a pure waste. They are unproven in reliability and cost nearly $12 million PER unit. But having a few of them ordered for Bay Head / Boonton could bring back a good return. NOT 36 units costing $420 million amidst so-called budget cuts.
@GordonFreemanD40 GO only has diesel lines... they say they might electrify some tracks... AMT bought some ALP-45DPs , and already have the same Bi level coaches as NJT
dont drop it lol

Wer hätte das gedacht das nach dem ICE diese Lok sich durchsetzt und den Personenverkehr an der Ostküste bewältigt.

Sweet! When will these brand dual-powered locomotives debut on NJT?

Looks like a P42 with an ALP46 cab scabbed on and a pantograph attached. Personally, I thinkg it should be a 6-axled engine.
