Awsome wishing I bought tickets
|
What happened to the E-5?
|
There is nothing wrong with E-5. The Nebraska Zephyr can not run on it's own, without help of UP. The engine has no train control to run on it's own power.
|
No, the Zephyr was out for Excursions on the BNSF Mendota sub, they put the GP in front for Dispatch to track it, it runs on it's own power.
|
I think having a UP unit in front has something to do with UP's signaling on this line.
|
GP15-1- "Does this E unit make my paint look dirty?"
|
The E5 is not able to lead due to it not having functional ATC cab signals as well as ATS.
