Re: AMTRACK POWER ELECTRIC

NYNH&H power used to also be 25 Hz, but it was changed by Metro North/CDOT in the 80s. Amtrak intended to upgrade as well, but never did, partly due to cost, except for that one segment between Astoria and New Rochelle. Probably because it allows the changeover to take place at a more convenient location for them.

Amtrak electrification north of NH was built in the 1990s and came online in 2000.
