[@CentralJerseyRailfan]

Fantastic catch of the move and the switchers pulling them!

[@TrainFilms]

“So they could vote Gina out of office” 🤣 mad funny - great video man!

[@NERJ607]

I heard MBTA might be buying these for their electrification project. That would be cool! MBCR's paint scheme would look good on em'! :D I also heard the Providence/Stoughton line will be extended to possibly Mystic CT. :O

[@southshorerailvideos1122]

Oh c'mon guys we all know the MBTA is not going to purchase aem-7's.......there obviously going to buy GG1's XD

[@sdrailproductions]

My curiosity is why did the NJT AEM-7’s had to suffer and rot?

[@anasiacameronelijahedcpndc4324]

@@southshorerailvideos1122 maby MBTA will buy GG1 #4917 (Formaly Amtrak Black #4934) will purchase it, and it will be operationally restored into an MBTA GG-1, and a top speed of 110MPH

[@TrainsandAdventuresTV]

Do you think they’ll get acs-64s and sc-44s too?

[@southshorerailvideos1122]

@@TrainsandAdventuresTV the MBTA is to poor for that Lmao

[@KaciCooperations]

Did the first aem-7 one is working?

[@davidng2336]

"so they could vote Gina Raimondo out of office." Best description ever! Real reason: removing the last of the old equipment from Bear and placing them in storage in RI until their various fates.

[@jakeatom4841]

Do you know where exactly they’re stored now? I’d love to see them.

[@basictransportenthusiast4386]

Was 946’s E-bell on?

[@TrainBrain2000]

Yeah

[@evanf1293]

Why did it take amtrak this long to scrap their aem 7s???????

[@evanf1293]

@@CANRAIl you mean scrapped but still hope more will get preserved before none are left in Wilmington, Delaware

[@ssrailvideos]

nice man!! sad but cool to see!

[@BessemerLakeErie902]

Interesting how one of the bells was on on one of the AEM-7s

[@samsstrasburgrailroad8427]

Are these for scrap? I thought 2 Amtrak's survive and Marc and SEPTA's in storage

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

Wow sweet catch. Nice job

Nice Video

[@Perich29]

they should sell some of these locomotive to the heritage railroad such as Verda canyon, Hebervalley, and or the Grand Canyon railroad. so they can replace the old steam locomotive or diesel locomotive and electrify there heratage railway since heratage railroad only go 25MPH on a rail excursion.

[@russellgxy2905]

I don’t think a Heritage railroad is going to run electric locomotives, especially not AC ones. That’s too much infrastructure for a line which sees comparatively light traffic and tonnage I know it’d be cool to see one of them running again, but I think the only shot we have is if one of the few remaining electric coal railroads decides to do some kind of tourist operation for extra profit.

[@llewis6317]

This deserves a sub from me

[@jasons7044]

That's a lot of scrap weight right there
