Farewell F40s!

The end of the era has come.

Hey, caltrain is not going to retire the F40PH-2Cs, they are going to keep all three!😄

[@caltrain908railfan]

@@StewartAlonzoMarshall Not all three, they are only keeping 921 and 922 is uncertain. JPBX 920 has already been retired a week ago.

@@caltrain908railfanall of them are being kept as of the 23rd

That one is not being retired. It’s a rebuild

[@caltrain908railfan]

@@SBRstudios That’s what I thought too, but it turns out they will be retiring JPBX 920 and JPBX 922. For some reason they are keeping JPBX 921.

Seems for whatever reason Caltrain fibbed about the “last” F40 run. See my video of 908 hauling 144 around quarter after midnight early Saturday morning, 9/21/24.

@@gdictit was to have a farewell run

[@caltrain908railfan]

@@gdict Caltrain only ran that train because on Thursday one of the EMUs had started burning up.

@@caltrain908railfanI heard about a mangled pantograph, but not an EMU “burning up”. Still doesn’t change the facts that 144 seems to have been the last run.
