marc cars are nice for commuter rail but wouldnt no cafe car and no bathrooms in every car get annoying?
-

@NJTAmtrakGuy ok this is my new account so it makes sense. Ive seen them lease VRE trains just never MARC
-
@Great0ne1 yeah thats true NJT does not have HHP-8 it would be nicce if they did.
-
i got a picture of the it in d.c it was so cool
-
NJT wisely did not purchase any HHP-8's.

Amtrack does not buy locomotives from other railroads. If anything they sell them or get them through a going out of business project.

It was leased by Amtrak for the Thanksgiving Holiday.

5 Stars! This is really RARE. I'm surprised you were able to chase it all the way from Queens to Penn Station via the NYC Subway. I wish MARC would run their AEM-7 a bit more often.

MARC is just now starting to get their AEM-7 locomotives back in service. I have seen a few vids of 4900, 4901, and 4902 recently. I will send you the video.

Thanks!!!!! It was luck that I was able to catch up to it all the way from Queens!!!!! I was riding on the 7 train and saw it pulling out of Sunnyside Yard so I got on the N train at Queens Plaza and chased it back to 34th
