    I'm still surprised the alp44 and aem-7 are still mixed up. Atlas and MTH still got the alp44 wrong. They probably went the cheap route assuming customers will still buy a AEM-7 with NJT SEPTA livery. I remember people arguing that model train collectors were picky and can point out every flaw in a scale locomotive such as missing 2-3 rivets. I never thought I would become one of them. I really liked this locomotive more than the GG1. I could never find any images of its interior until I went to the site where locos are stored. Great tribute video.

    I remember when the first few weeks riding on the Valley Flyer that engine was still around and that was probably two years ago I think. Always took that train to work and remember that diesel too. Until the later months I saw the new diesels and they are ok but do miss the old ones .

The only NJT I get to see is the ACL service that goes through 30th street with GP40s on them and I use to see Arrows when leased to Amtrak for Holiday Extras but since they didn't have PTC they didn't. Someone else I heard may be drafting an Engines of NJT however I'm not sure.

      @Thunderbolt_1000_Siren  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes but they run on certain lines at certain times. Paoli Thorndale (most common), Wilmington Newark, and West Trenton lines see them on rush hour express trains from 6am to 9am and 4:30pm to 7pm while 1 set (The all day set) runs first on the Paoli Thorndale in the morning, then goes to the Media Elwyn, then the Manayunk Norristown (my line) in the afternoon at 12:22, then the Elwyn again, then Warminster, I think it hits the Lansdale Doylestown line too at night before finishing back on the Paoli Thorndale. I most commonly see the all day set in my area and can hear the K5LAs from the cab car and ACS-64 from my house. Good luck on catching them!

      From what I remember that service had an ALP-44 at one end for the under wire sections via Amtrak and a diesel (Believe they primarily used Ex Amtrak P40s) for the dieselized ACL. Better idea than using ALP-45DPs which are RUBBISH engines.

    Sadly non of the ABB ALP-44's from SEPTA survive all where scrapped in 2022 not one single example saved as SEPTA history,
    But good news the New Jersey Transit ones half are left and one example United Railroad Historical Society of New Jersey has 4424 their and that unit entered service around the same year I was born basically but not the same date I was born on.

    • @Thunderbolt_1000_Siren
      @Thunderbolt_1000_Siren  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      SEPTA only had 1 ALP-44. 4424 is indeed preserved but acts as a cab car due to the lack of wires on the rails it's owned by.
