@kmothersil EMD just needs to make some more passenger engines, bottom line. Maybe a F60ACe that would be sweeeeet!!!
-
@DJGENEX71 Not to sound like a genius here, but there is two problems with that.
1. The MP36s didn't exist when the Genesis was introduced and the Genesis did a good job when I went on my last train trip early in June although it was freezing cold on the southbound trip.
2. GE is now involved with Motive Power Inc. as they are going to provide the parts to the HSP46. That will be GE's test to see if they still have it. The 645 and 710 worked let's see if the GEVO-12 works with MPI.

I wish Amtrak would buy some of those Motive Power engines instead of all the junk GE's they have!

@davinp thinks for the info. But just out of curiosity how do know this?

Virginia Railway Express train arrives at Washington Union Station with GP40 V01by ucvgabe632 views
hmmm.......also very cool. i mean, for one i wasnt aware these coaches were in use anywhere else but in chicago, new anyway, i think maryland has some older refurbished metras, and i thought the nscale set would only really sell well here in the chicag area, thus prolly not being populat enuff for Kato to consider an HO release, but if they can sell them elsewhere....hmmm.....hoping....

@mercenary454 i have been waiting a long time for this equipment to be available in N scale. Now if they'd only make some sort of single deck push pull commuter cars that I could use for the MARC service....

Whoa, Nippon Sharyo bi level commuter coaches.........huh, did not know that.

@mercenary454 yep, the consists are pretty similar to Metra now. That's why it didn't surprise me when Kato announced that the Metra releases were gonna be available in VRE colors.

@DJGENEX71 I don't thinks that's gonna happen. If anything EMD will probably just send MP more parts to build more engines. I just heard that GE's also getting out of the passenger business. GE and MP are trying to work out a deal to build passenger units to replace the Amtrak P40s and 42s. Now that's just what I heard. Don't know if it's true yet. But with all the GREEN stuff going on, I think MP will be America's passenger rail engine builder. MP is supposedly greener than EMD and GE.
