After all, something nearly 71 feet long and 14 feet tall is pretty much unprecedented in terms of regular operation out of Suburban Station. The PRR didn't run the GG1s out of there despite being a full foot shorter and effectively half the length due to their articulated frame. Whether this restriction was due to clearance or tractive effort problems on the grade west of Suburban isn't clear. But it's certain that NJT's white elephants will not outperform the GG1 and thus they will more than likely not be found suitable for operation through the CCCT. |
