So what are the details about 08 and 09 going to Pueblo? Some testing with the first two units that was unresolved?
I don't know the details but two more are scheduled to go to Pueblo on 6(10).So what are the details about 08 and 09 going to Pueblo? Some testing with the first two units that was unresolved?
The answer is in the November 8 meeting minutes of the NGEC executive committee. Excerpt from the status update section for the Charger Procurement:So what are the details about 08 and 09 going to Pueblo? Some testing with the first two units that was unresolved?
Locomotive 4604 is stored at MARC after the successful completion for Vehicle Qualification Testing on the North-East Corridor.
IDOT 4608 & 4609 have been shipped to TTCI at Pueblo, CO for 500-mile burn-in testing. The locomotives will next ship to Chicago, when IDOT and Amtrak are ready.
IDOT will now send a locomotive to WSDOT for 238.111(b) testing on the Cascades route. WSDOT will conduct the 238.111(b) test. Other JPEs are working with Amtrak for 238.111(a) test plans.
The unit going to WSDOT is 4603.The answer is in the November 8 meeting minutes of the NGEC executive committee. Excerpt from the status update section for the Charger Procurement:So what are the details about 08 and 09 going to Pueblo? Some testing with the first two units that was unresolved?

I know that, but that wasn't my question.the unit heading to cascades service is a IDOT unit only to be used for testing, it will not be owned by Washington DOT
Right now that one unit #4603 which is going to WSDOT will be painted in the IDOT paint scheme; as it's an IDOT unit.I know that, but that wasn't my question.the unit heading to cascades service is a IDOT unit only to be used for testing, it will not be owned by Washington DOT
Wait, I thought those two units were, as reported above, headed to Pueblo? Is this confirmed?In other news apparently 4605 & 4606 are arriving in Chicago today.

Just reporting what I've been told, apparently there are railfans heading trackside specifically to catch them going thru Chicago. I'll see if I can't find out where they got that information.Wait, I thought those two units were, as reported above, headed to Pueblo?

I seriously hope those units are not headed to Chicago. They were supposed to be cut at Denver yesterday along with the leaders which were going back to 5.
Edit: the cut and split have been made. They are NOT heading to CHI. The power tracking has been confirmed....unless they forgot to bring the SC44's with them.

The ACS-64 locomotives start with 600, not 601. The F40PH (200), SDP40F (500), P30CH (700), and the AEM-7 (900) all did as well.Its
