Re: Amtrak orders 75 new Siemens Charger locomotives for LD trains

Be simpler to electrify to Port Jeff. Despite LIRR being psychologically opposed, the job was left half done 30 years ago.

Then LIRR Pres Prendergast was the fool who came from Chicago and thought rail commuter should ride bi-level coaches behind EMD's.

Paturkey wanted to give Super Steel business. So there was the perfect storm.

Now the current LIRR Preident is too lame and disinterested to rent MARC coaches for the summer surge, incessantly putting out e-mail blasts on ESA and 3rd track progress, while day-to-day operations rot away.
