I saw some SEPTA Silverliner MUs pull out of stations pretty quickly. They ALL have DC motors. Though I don't know the exact statistics. Nor do I know h HP rating. Though I think the Arrows were rebiult with more powerful motors, but fewer. Each double unit has one unpowered truck. I think I read here that the DC LIRR M3s have better acceleration than M7s. |
