Engines of Metro North EMD F40PH-3C 

I recorded this video before NJT F40PH-2CAT locomotives 4119 and 4120 ran more revenue trains. I still do not know what the state of NJT’s remaining F40’s but it is more complex than I made it out to be.

These trains are so metallic and shiny I do not imagine they taste very good. I do not think I could consume these trains.

Of these units, 4910 catches my eye the most, due to it originally having been Amtrak 310. A former AMT Leaser being used on Trinity Railway Express right now is numbered 310 (alongside another numbered 330), but of course, here is where we find the real 310. That 310 down in Texas was actually 392, while the 330 was originally 365. Before becoming AMT Leasers, they spent time on Virginia Railway Express, who numbered them V31 and V33. After VRE tossed them, the Leasing Companies decided just to keep the numbers they then had, just stick a 3 back in front of them. 10:14 "Siemen Chargers"... So how many Siemens are there exactly?

F40PH. Oh, what a famous engine.

When those Siemens Chargers replace the current fleet of locomotives on the west of Hudson lines, I think the GP40s and F40s on Metro North will just be used on work trains, and in switching and rescue services as well. Will Metro North get their Siemens Chargers for the west of Hudson lines soon, nyrailfan 202?

I love that engine

Glad MTA retains their F40PH-3Cs, along with the GP40FH-2Ms. NJT 4119 and 4120 recently also came back; however it was very brief.

I was in Emerson NJ by the Train station and I saw Metro North 4913 on the Pascack Valley line yesterday and today it was very Rare to see That same Train running up to Spring Valley NY in return to Hoboken but I did NJ Transit stop by the station it was PL42AC the Alstom

Very nice. I’m glad someone is doing the Engines of Metro North!

NJT 4119 and 4120 are now known as the F40 Twins.

Love this locomotive.

Great video! Sorry to see the end of the series go. It very excited to see what's next! Perhaps The long island rail road? So much great equipment All the there through the all the years! It would be really great to see you your videos about that as your videos are always very informative and entertaining!

Cool video!

Great video!

cool video. a few things... NJT got kept 3 F40PH-2CATS (4118,4119,4120), and the 4119 and 4120 have recently been paired together and have run a few revenue trains together.

I always thought that the C in the F40PH-3C meant Canadian Comfort Cab

These F40ph can also operate Hoboken High Bridge trains in addition to west of Hudson Services the combined Port Jervis Main Line via Patterson or Combined Port Jervis Bergen County Line via Rutherford in addition to Passsack Valley line NJ Transit Hoboken Division

That’s awesome 😎

A new vid to cheer me up on a bad day :D

Nice

The Siemens Chargers that Metro North will get for their West of Hudson line will just replace the GP40s instead of the F40PH-3Cs. Deal?

F40PH prime mover running at 893 rpm? Must have given 59.533... Hz head end power frequency. Wonder why they didn't just go for 900 rpm -- engine red line?

nyrailfan 202, how long were the F40PH-2CATs rebuilt?

nyrailfan 202, why did New Jersey Transit keep 2 F40PH-2CAT locomotives?

Great finale to the series! 4119 and 4120 recently re-entered service since NJT'S Geeps will be sent away for rebuilding soon. Also, did you have to ask permission for esch video used or can you just give them credit?

nyrailfan 202, why did the F40PH-2CATs run in revenue service in 2018?

nyrailfan 202, why did Metro North purchase four New Jersey Transit F40PH-2CATs?

nyrailfan 202, what year were the Metro North F40s rebuilt?

The MN F40PH-3Cs have a Cat C15 hep, not a cummins.

Seems that the Amtrak train has a GP40TC included behind.

I’m pretty sure there are some still operational.

Can you please talk about the LTEX Amtrak F40'S next???

Shoreliners next?

It’s the MPI F40PH-3C

Does metro north still use f40ph-2cat?

They should keep them still tho

Can you please make a video about comets and shoreliners Especially the ones from port jervis

How long have you been doing this series now?

You didn't mention Amtrak f units E8

Oh @willf40 will like you did a bio on him. WHERES MINE THO

Shoreliner episode coming out soon?

You got 406 before it became an NPCU

Could you do engines of the MBTA?

Metra F40Ph

Oh man they are talking about me lol

South Amboy not Perth Amboy for changing of locomotives

NJT Electric E60 or GG1 or new
