    Amtrak: Oh no our heritage unit!

    At least nobody was killed in the fire, and I'm sure that Amtrak will just pull another unit and paint it into phase 1.

    A trespasser was blowing a cigarette and he put it on a puddle of fuel when the cigarette was still lit a spark made that huge fire

    From what I have heard the cause was from a person unknowingly dropping a lit cigarette into a small puddle of oil and that is what ignited the fire

    You know this isn't the 1st time that an Amtrak Heritage Unit in this paint scheme waas involved in an incident. The last Unit, 156 was involved in an accident in New Orleans back in 2020. Y'all have a Happy Thanksgiving.

    Another Amtrak repaint to that scheme would be nice. That scheme seems to be jinxed though.

  • @amtrakandcsxrailfanning164
    @amtrakandcsxrailfanning164 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

    So this unit is gone, but hopefully they will maybe give this heritage unit a replacement for this paint scheme just like this unit was a replacement for another hailed unit that all that got scrapped a while ago number is 156 and then after 156 was gone they repainted Its scheme onto 161 to be 156 is replacement
    But sure hope they give 161 a replacement someday because of this file problem that happened recently when it was probably on the Limiteed trying to get through dc
    But hopefully they will give a replacement just like 164 is also a replacement as well from another engine that was Amtrak 184 Heritage unit but then that Heritage unit got sent for a repaint, but Amtrak didn’t have to IV scheme paint for it so they sadly turned that unit back into a regular Amtrak engine with the regular Amtrak scheme, but they were able to put its IV scheme on another unit that happened to be 164 now 164 is 184 as replacement for the IV scheme

    Man, I've seen 161 before... down in folkston, and visited my neck of the woods. I feel bad. But it is in the end just a P42, many copies of it still kicking and nobody got hurt or worse. It will likely be replaced by another unit in the near future.

    Crazy to see an x cnw unit still in cnw paint though patched to up still in service to this day wonder why they haven’t painted it to full up paint though guess it’s like the old sp patched units will be painted into up someday

    I think Amtrak will repaint one of the other P42’s into the same scheme and renumber it to 161.
