Thanks for an enjoyable video and the memories. I especially enjoyed the footage of Train No. 4 shot at Streator, IL on 0 6-13-93. I was the conductor on that very same Southwest Chief from Kingman to Albuquerque the previous day. The entire consist of that train was as follows: 518, 250, 1514, 1504, 1565, 1229, 39902, 39956, 34090, 34043, 33005, 38008, 32042, 32043 and IC#1. The IC business car carried IC President Ed Moyers and party. The Santa Fe yard job switched out the IC car in Albuquerque where it stayed overnight and left on Train No. 4 the following day...David W.

They have many camcorder films stowed away of endless Amtrak footage that I need to dig up soon.

273 is a pure, perfect F40. It's something they ought to look upon. It would be much better if when the Long Distance Siemens Chargers begin arriving, they all be given P5As with the exact same tuning as the one on 273, instead of those pieces of crap they call 3rd-Gen K5LAs.

Thanks so much! I always liked having a cut of MHCs and other head cars on trains as I felt it gave an extra measure of protection in case of an incident on the rails. Too bad Amtrak didn't keep that business of express...though it my understanding they didn't make much money off it and in fact may have lost money.
@Trumpholdings8 жыл бұрын
Great Work as always! This leads me to wonder, did the material handling cars have BUS or MU cables to carry the HEP current back to the coaches? In some cases the coaches are isolated in the center of the train far away from the locomotives. I'd love to hear any firsthand insight anyone has about this. Thanks!
@goodeye038 жыл бұрын
I worked on the Lake Shore Limited in OBS dept...NOt sure what cable supplied the power but the Mail Cars did have them and we had HEP throughout the train even after adding the NYC section in Albany. I worked there from 92-96 and worked the Lake Shore as well as trains 11,12 BOS-WAS that were the Fast mails. Nothing about them was fast...Big consists of 6-9 material cars and, 2 coaches and a cafe/club or Cafe only. The consist leaving Boston would be 2 (sometimes 3) F40's , 3 material cars, baggage car, Sleeper, 3 coaches and a lounge car, 4 material cars on the end that would be dropped in Springfield Ma. The front material cars would produce enough revenue for the train that the PAX tickets were all profit (so I was told). Back then it was a tired old train and a rolling collection of junk from the 50's 60's and 70's..The only newer cars were the cafes and lounges..It wouldn't be until the 20's until Amfleet 2's were used along with viewliner sleepers...Now the consist leaving Boston is 2 P42's a baggage ,2 coaches Amfleet 2's , cafe or lounge...Things have changed..The 90's version was so big at some stations after Albany we had to make 2 different stops at a station to unload and load the train... I miss working there.

There was an article in a modeling magazine back in the 90's I believe that detailed how to replicate the air and HEP hoses and connections these early MHC's had, so yes, they did have them.

@@timf2279 Amtrak did fairly well with the mail and express business. The freight railroads got mad when they expanded into the RoadRailers and started going after things that they considered their business and complained. Then David Gunn did away with the whole thing when he became CEO around 2000. As far as I know the MHCs were good for at least 79 mph, but they used them in the Northeast Corridor on the old "Night Owl" which was allowed 110 mph. That's why they had different trucks under them than other freight cars.

Any locomotive engineer will tell you that an GE/Alco will pull harder than its EMD equivalent. The older EMD units loaded faster, but that doesn't equate into tractive effort. Today's GE's, with individually controlled AC motors, continue that tradition. Tonnage ratings and dynamic brake ratings are, without exception, higher for the big AC chuggers than their equivalents at EMD/Cat.
