Remarks & Notes |
In celebration for NJ Transit's 40th anniversary the railroad unveiled three new heritage units on the day of MMC Family Day 2019. Transit wrapped two ALP locomotives (PRR/NJT ALP-46A 4636 & EL/NJT ALP-45DP 4519) and painted GP40PH-2 4109 back into it's "as delivered" solid blue and yellow CNJ paint scheme. Built back in October 1968 as CNJ 3677, the unit has been hauling passenger trains for 51 years. It is a nice treat for this locomotive to be painted back into it's original paint just in time for it's 51st birthday. The locomotive is seen here posing on display on the day of it's unveiling in the MMC locomotive shop on Family Day. This locomotive hasn't been in active revenue service for several years now. Upon it's return to service the unit will receive a new AR10 (main generator for GP40s & F40s) and new HEP. |
