Amtrak Locomotive Tier List - 35+ Locomotives:
Have you ever wondered what Thelefevrefever thinks about common and rare Amtrak Locomotives and Train sets? Here you can find my thoughts on all of that. With a list of about 40 different trains, I only did a few minutes of research on each locomotive, so I will miss some interesting facts and flaws.
Feel free to share your favorite Locomotive in the comments below.
I know I am missing at least 4 trains:
- Amtrak ICE 1 - B Tier
- X2000 - A Tier border of S
- Flexliner - C Tier
- Turboliner 3 - C Tier
Thoughts on Ideas are Appreciated

The E-44 was intended for MOW servicw. They were built between 1960 and 1963 by GE for the Pennsylvania Railroad and were the last freight electrics built for the Pennsy. They lasted until 1981 in freight service for Pennsy, Penn Central, and Conrail. NJT purchased two for passenger service and then never used them. They sat stored at the former CNJ Elizabethport Shops until being scrapped. 502, now at the RRMPA is PRR 4465, the last one built and thankfully is a survivor of the electric empire the PRR built and wanted.

3:00 Not sure if someone pointed this out before, but minor nitpick on my part: Amtrak *never* had E6's or E7's. They only had E8's and E9's. Other than that, good video.

Don’t see the GG1 on here which I’d argue is one of the coolest electric locos and had one of the best looking Amtrak liveries they had ever put to an engine.

What about the E and F Units of old (yes they were old by then and had mechanical issues due to being neglected but rebuilt could have been extremely good).

@EpicThe112 8 месяцев назад

I wonder why you went and put SNCF CC2100 in the S tier which was known as the X996 back in the 1970s? Amtrak should have also gone into West Germany for their DB Baureihe 110.3 103 120 as GG1 replacements.

@ashermccready Год назад

in what world is the SDP40F better than the LRC? the LRC cars still make up the backbone of VIA's fleet to this day, and are leagues better than amfleet, it absolutely worked in canada, regardless of the minor issues with the tilting system. Also the LRC cars were eventually developed into the Acela cars, so the same argument that applied to the turbotrain should apply to the LRC.

@Thelefevrefever Год назад

The tier list is of locomotives and in the LRC case I only rated the locomotives(I did not at first know the cars where specialized). Also this is an option filled video and an Amtrak list, I did not account for VIA. LRC is now only D Tier.

@blackbirdgaming8147 11 месяцев назад

You’re missing some MOW and switching locomotives. In addition, you call the GP7 an SD7, which is not correct. The “44 tonner” is actually an 80 tonner, but that’s an easy mistake to make.

@Thelefevrefever 11 месяцев назад

Thanks can you list any specific make/models that I’m missing. And yes, I realize I misslabeled the SD7

@blackbirdgaming8147 11 месяцев назад

@@ThelefevrefeverSure thing. You’re missing some completely regular GP40s that Amtrak leased from Helm Leasing due to an acute power shortage. Nothing different from a regular GP40 except slightly higher gearing and HEP pass through. I didn’t see CF7s, SW1s, or ALCO S-series switchers either.
