Re: AMTK short on locomotives - f125 x40 in SoCal

Charger ran at 138mph with 4 MARC Bi-levels at the AAR Test Center during qualification testing.

EMD could never get qualified to run faster than 90mph at the test center due to stability issues. I believe the Metrolink folks still have this point on their open items list, since they bought a locomotive advertised as being 125mph capable.

Both the EMD and Siemens locomotives use DEF. Both are junk and will never last as long as the F40s or P42s.
