Posted by WillD on Sun May 27 13:05:23 2012, in response to Talkeetna, Alaska to Whittier, Part 3 of 3, posted by Dave on Sun May 27 11:51:24 2012. Again, an excellent series of photos. Are the ARR's F40PHs powered or being used as the local equivalent of Amtrak's Cabbages? Or are they just there to provide HEP? It seems odd they'd put a second HEP engine on a train hauled by a (presumably) HEP equipped SD70MAC, but it does sound like the MAC's performance with one truck inverter given over to supplying hotel power has been less than stellar.And it's always good to see a use for a Gallery car that doesn't involve it inconveniencing thousands of commuters a day. |
