Did the NJtransit E60 Electric locomotives couple to great Northern coaches if so what year did it stop.
All of the NJT E60s acquired from Amtrak were equipped with HEP and not steam generators. If an E60 did couple up to a GN coach it would not have been on an in-service train.

I see thanks. I didnt know about steam or HEP generators.
Every picture I've seen of those ex-BN NJT cars was on the service to Bay Head, NJ (dubbed the Bay Head Builder) behind ex-CNJ GP40Ps.
Of the 26 E60s, 6 were built with steam generators as E60CP, with the remainder having HEP and being designated E60CH. All the E60CPs lost their steam generators, but for some reason 2 never recieved HEP.
