I saw his speech at some station on the news. SEPTA trains were making stops behind him. How can you call him an elitist when he doesn't even cause a service disruption...and this is SEPTA, they love disruption! |

I was wondering about that myself. The first two thoughts that came to mind were that the train might continue west of Harrisburg and that there may not have been two extra AEM7's. HHP8's are too unreliable to use on a high profile train such as this. |

HHP8s are almost never used on Keystones anyway, but I've #666 pulled by a HHP8, which was the only time an AEM7 wasn't doing the honors on a Keystone. |
