The last thing SEPTA needs is to both tie an albatross around their neck by ordering these ungodly dual fail locomotives. It'd be that much worse for them to do so while adding more suburban counties to their service area to further water down the city's representation on the SEPTA board while adding virtually nothing to the system's coffers.In any event it really doesn't look like the ALP45DP will make it through the 20th St portal and the wires around there. A 14 foot, 6 inch C424 grounded the overhead wire coming through there back in 2005. NJT's dual fails are nearly 15 feet tall, which is much too close for comfort to the overhead wire. Give us wire to Pottstown and Quakertown, or don't bother. |
