QUOTE: Originally posted by UPTRAIN They ran for 12 or so years, racked up almost twice as many miles per month as freight units, were GE's, and they're just worn out, Amtrak already tried the GE Rebuild Program...which is buy new units...and the P42's are already wearing out!
QUOTE: Originally posted by Dutchrailnut Don you know nothing about GE's I see. btw these units just had a overhaul by Amtrak and other than the Cabsignal, Harmon has not touched them. these units are plain worn out.

QUOTE: Originally posted by Dutchrailnut Ok another opinion of someone who heard ?? I operate the engines on MNCR and the P40's are rockets compare to FL9 or P32acdm. the bad thing is these P40's are wornout, they leak oil and smoke and are in bad shape. pulling out of a station is like firing up mount st Helens. MNCR/CDOT are leasing 8 units from Amtrak but in my opinion the lease won't last to long.
