If Siemens could somehow make a dual mode version and keep it at the same height, these would be perfect for the LIRR. They would be able to go to Atlantic Terminal if necessary (the SW1001 is taller and can fit there) and should be able to run with any hand me down equipment that the LIRR may want to borrow or purchase in the future more easily than the DE30AC and DM30AC can, improving the diesel fleet's flexibility and availability. |
