Very interesting.
What's the reason of changing locomotive here? Scheduled maintenance in depot or brigade changing?
-
did anybody notice that the first engine was a phase 4?
-
wow! i thought the 3 phase units were gone then!

@howardkevinm diesels are allowed in Penn station and GCT ,there just strictly prohibited to be in diesel mode.. and a P32AC-DM is Dual Mode it can run on 3rd rail power, and DIesel power..
-
@iPodiToons all trains coming to/from Albany heading to NY use a P32 electric. it has a third rail shoe. diesels arent allowed in Penn Station or Grand Central Terminal so they have to switch engines in Albany. trains have been doing it for 70yrs
-
Seems to be that in the dual mode set that coulped to the train, all 3 of those locomotives had a different scheme.
