GO Transit F59PH Locomotives

[@adventuresofamtrakcascades301]

Gos F59s will always be an icon of GO in my heart

[@CoasterFan2105]

Very iconic locomotives!

[@coolleo149]

I’m glad those are still being used for this year!

[@CoasterFan2105]

Me too!

[@modified_2t22]

Kind of sad that these are disappearing, but it's nice that two got to run a train by themselves.

[@CoasterFan2105]

Glad to see a number of them still in service!

[@GamingRailfanner]

These are going in for a rebuild eventually

Epic F59PH Locomotives from GO Transit.

[@CoasterFan2105]

Thanks, Nathan!

[@JazzyStogie]

I have been through a certain community college's railway conductor program. I graduated from one of the very first offerings of this course. Towards the end of the school year, we all did a placement at the Guelph Junction railway when it was being operated by OSR. This was at the same time that GO trains were being stored at the OSR yard (which sadly they aren't stored there anymore)....and the only power they had at this time was the F59PH. What a time to be alive!

[@shadow_5245]

These locomotives bring back so many from when I was 4, 5 years old almost 20 years ago now! They will be missed by us railfans that's for sure. For now however, they're still going strong! Thanks for this awesome video, excellent quality and camera work.

[@stinkyroadhog1347]

Im so glad GO saw the value in these units. Despite needing to replace them with better units, they still kept 8 because of how much good they got out of them. They were robust, rugged and really reliable and got well deserved overhauls and will remain in service for the foreseeable future

Phenomenal video!! Man, this is a part of my childhood……seeing all these F59’s in Toronto, I remember seeing those MP40’s when they were new, and those CEM cab cars….its cool to see some of these old EMD passenger triclops cab locomotives around.

[@SPRailfan4449]

I love the F59PH’s cause they look so different to most passenger units. I hope a few of them get preserved. 👍

[@CoasterFan2105]

They look really cool! I’m hoping to see some GO and Metrolink units end up in museums at some point. We shall see!

[@SPRailfan4449]

@@CoasterFan2105 Yeah I agree. I really hope a Cal train F40PH gets saved into preservation. 🙏

[@allegro446]

I hope my local commuter service (TRE) rebuilds and continues to use these locomotives in the future. These are my favorite and are too beautiful and iconic to go

[@marengtech313]

20 yrs. and 2 rebuilds still acting up near the end, bet they were glad to see them go.

[@ILoveViaLRC]

Yes more go transit

[@CoasterFan2105]

I have one more GO video that should be coming out in the next few months!

[@dbolt6543]

On weekends GO ran double header locomotives on the Lakeshore line because the trains had to stay out all day and their fuel tanks were not large enough to run all day. One loco provided tractive power and the other provided head end power. This was a result of CN limiting the size of their fuel tanks. Weekday trains were changed off enough to allow for refuelling of the locos. GO refuels engines at Aldershot Yard during the day to get around this problem now.

[@AMTK317Productions]

Nice video. I wonder what the F59PHs of GO Transit would be like in a new paint scheme? I'd wish I'd go to Toronto and see some action including F59PHs before they are retired.

[@CoasterFan2105]

Thanks! I heard that the remaining GO units may be getting an overhaul in the not too distant future, but I haven’t seen anything official on that yet.

[@graphtonix6607]

It's so cool that none of the GO Transit F59PH were sold for scrap and hopefully all of them will last until the year of 2029.

[@ArthurTheLMandLKFan]

Incorrect, They Will Be Overhauled And Repainted In The New Metrolinx Scheme & Be Rebuilt into Tier 4

[@graphtonix6607]

Cool!!!!!!!!!@@ArthurTheLMandLKFan

[@ASoCalRailfanner]

Dang Canadians railfanners are lucky because they still have f59ph units operating there because in Southern California there are almost none left.

Yup my fav type of go trains still tho fo realz from back then and prefer these onez better than the new ones tho so yeah, from my childhood!.❤😊

[@anareel4562]

I remember when i was about 8 being allowed not just in the cab but allowed to operate one of these beasts while in revenue service, under supervision of course. My dad worked for GO Transit, the 90s was a different time

Hey coaster, I’m a big fan of you! You were one of the reasons I’m why I’m into trains to this day. I have a quick suggestion, you should do your model train videos again, I used to love them!

[@sotomanuel3]

When you listen a metrolink f59ph horn: 😊 But you remember the f59ph They are turned off and there are no plans to put them back into service: 😨

[@ASoCalRailfanner]

Do not panic they still have some f59phr units still in service such as 852, 856, 861, 868, and 873

Sick video, Ive always loved the F59. You should make a stop in Montreal and document our F59ph's before their planned retirement, and the phi's before their rebuilt is complete/while they are still in AMT colours.

You can find them pretty reliably on the barrie line at off peak hours. Almost half of the GO trains i see are still pulled by an F59

@CoasterFan2105 your welcome Would you be? Able to do a video on the p. HI59 locomotive that metrolink did have one time. I did see one I don't know if they had a more and more. But that was a long time ago and I wasn't sure if they, I don't think they bought it because it looked like it might have at least. I think they might still haven't self downtown. LA lot of train tracks with the LA river bed by the Macy street bridge. There are a lot of retired diesel locomotives sitting there and I believe they, it might that 1 from go transit maybe Still on the property
