First NJT ALP46A unveiled in Kassel, Germany

[ns3010]

Over in Germany, the original ALP-46s were shipped to the port by truck.

Over here, they arrived in Port Elizabeth. I'd assume that they went to the MMC (Meadows Mainenance Complex) by rail, because they're so close, as can be seen here. The Port is the area at the bottom where all the red markers are, and the MMC is that large open area between the Pulaski Skyway and the Turnpike. If you zoom in to that spot, you can see a large rail yard and a bunch of shop buildings.

Kassel is some way from the nearest sea port - does anyone know if they travel by rail to the port or whether they go on road low loaders? Similalry in the USA is delivery to a rail-served port, and if so which one and how are they hauled to the NJT yard?

They look pretty nice, the way they should. One more in cab shot:

I like the new "Faded Disco" stripe better than the original Disco Stripe; It looks much more cleaner, modern, and sleek.

Hey thanks for that.  I am in diesel territory so don't see the electrics much but will keep an eye out.

The first of the new batch of ALP-46A locomotives was presented to the public and NJT at a ceremony yesterday (11/12/09) in Kassel, Germany at the Bombardier plant. Note that these are not the Dual-powered locomotives, these are straight electric locmotives. A photograph can be seen here;
