A MiTrain cab car was open for public viewing during the Mayor's Green Fair. I apologize for the shakiness, I was running late and didn't think I'd have time to get the tripod out & set up.
MiTrain - Ypsi test
Переглядів 1,1 тис.11 років тому
Amtrak, MDOT, & GLC officials run a test train for the new MiTrain service on the Michigan Line stopping at the Ypsilanti station in Depot Town. MiTrain is the new proposed commuter railroad that would run between Ann Arbor, MI and Detroit, MI. The Galley cars being refurbished for the service are ex-Metra and have had exstensive rebuilding done by Great Lakes Central Railroad. Motive power for...

Explore a designer's reskin for Trainz Simulator and learn some tips & tricks to make your reskins better. I apologize for the watermark, as it turns out my work computer does not have iMovie on it, I may republish using a video computer at a later date.
Do you have any train videos of the late 90s?
I remember watching this for amtrak when i was in engine school at choo choo high in wilmington. Good times
Ah yes, corporate stock footage, just what i want
Why am I watching this? I don't even own a P42... Have you noticed the "Boeing-brown" color on the dashboard? Anyway, I'm going to continue watch this in order to get my Nerd-O-meter to 100. Thanks for uploading.
Now i am P42 Certified👍😂
Sure is a lot better than what " they're " buying now or should I say Us ?
It's a shame Amtrak is moving towards these wimpy European-style locomotives they all look faggy
This made me want to be a locomotive engineer even more
Man those big 80's glasses 🤣
Sucks that these are being slowly phased out now but I am also happy to see a new era of locomotives beginning with the new Siemens Chargers.
4:33 why does he kinda sounds like SwaggerSouls
well now I just want to buy a retired P42 when they start to leave the roster, just to go over this video in the real P42 cab!
Bruh.
Emd was better than these pieces of junk engines!
I GOT TO WORK WITH THE VERY FIRST OF THESE GE STREAM LINERS, THE 800 BEFORE IT WAS PLACED IN SERVICE IN THE 1990s! IT CAME THROUGH AT&SF ARGENTINE YARDS ON ITS WAY TO THE PUEBLO DOT TEST CENTER! IT CAME IN DIT ( DEAD IN TOW) WITH A FREIGHT TRAIN OUT OF CHICAGO! IT WAS CUT OFF TO BE PUT ON ANOTHER FREIGHT HEADED TO COLORADO. I WAS CALLED TO LOOK AT IT BECAUSE WHEN SET IN THE SIDING THE SWITCHMAN COULDN’T FIND THE HAND BRAKE! THE CAB AND THE ENGINE ROOM WAS LOCKED , AND I FOUND THE HAND BRAKE TO SECURE IT ON THE SIDING! IT WAS THE FIRST ELECTRIC OPERATING HAND BRAKE I SAW! WHEN THE LOCOMOTIVE WAS SET ON ITS NEXT FREIGHT I RELEASED THE HAND BRAKE, THEN PULLED THE BATTERY SWITCH! WHEN THE ENGINE CAME BACK EAST TO ERIE SOMEONE SET THE HAND BRAKE AND THEN WAS UNABLE TO RELEASE THE HAND BRAKE BECAUSE THE BATTERY SWITCH WAS LEFT CLOSED AND THE DRUG 3” FLAT SPOTS ON ONE PAIR OF WHEELS!! UNFORTUNATELY THIS HAPPENED ON MY DAY OFF AND I MISSED THE MISTAKE!! BUT I THOUGHT THESE UNITS WERE GREAT, AND I STILL DO!! KEEP THEM ROLLING BROTHERS!! 👍👍
Cool
Thanks for posting this. I happen to own a fucntioning P4DC locomotive as family heirloom, but I wasn't sure about any of its parts.
I reckon you mean a model.
My dad has a whole box of these somewhere, I watched them all the time as a kid. I can still remember most of the HEP and Cooling system ones.
Please find a way to digitize them and put them up here on UA-cam!
Warning you to stay off of my account ! !! Ya hear!
year video?
the train cab looks identical to the Ac4400w cab freight train companies have but different
Cooooooioioooooooiooioooo coooooooolooooooooooooolllll
Unfortunate that you placed the cam right next to a bees' nest :-) The new train set looks great minus the old and outdate stray in the middle.
Is that photoshop ?????
I never knew that these large locomotives can run a short distance on just battery power. Can freights also do this?
If the railroad that owns the Loco ordered the JOG feature, then yes.
Short distance means feet, nothing more.
Hard to believe these now are starting to become "secondary" units in favor of the newer Siemens Locomotoves, just like the old EMDs were over 25 years ago when the Genesis was introduced.... Time and technology do not wait...
Meanwhile VIA still runs the F40PH’s, and with the new Charger’s, are freeing the F40’s to run long distance exclusively.
Phenomenal and beautiful K5LA on this P42DC (1). 15:18, 15:36 & 23:57.
Gee, I wonder if they could have made operating this engine just a little more complicated?
the p42 is one of my favorite locomotives because of it's streamline design and also some of the p42 horns sound like a steam engine is it the type of k5la or a foul.?
The video bring back memories. In the late 70's I worked for Amtrak in Chicago, as a journeyman machinist with the EMD F-40 some sdp-40's and the Brighton park French version turboliners. Also a once in a blue moon a P-30ph from Louisiana dropped by the shop. Good old days
Hello from Kansas 🇺🇸
Of course the paint doesn't match the chargers...
it kinda does
@@IndigosClothing it does
I wonder if these new coaches will be seen in the Northeast?
These are specifically for the midwest, in fact they're not even Amtrak's cars they're owned by the midwest states.
@@Trainlover1995 then we need to do something about that! If that’s the direction Amtrak plans to go in, then trains in America are fucked!
Nice video! Cool that MDOT is using a drone.
Finally they’re testing these new coaches
Now I know why a friend’s dad retired as an engineer a millionaire
When metronorth got these engines?????
The cab interiors of these things are of laughable build quality....😐
Wow! This locomotive uses four computers just to operate a horn. Wow!
I just spent an hour watching a video for a locomotive i will never operate and yet no regrets.
Right? If i need to operate a P42, this video omitted one key detail, where the hell is the entire crew? The LSA is even more qualified to operate these than i.
Those are sd40s not Plymouths
geesh, I think I'll go learn how to fly the space shuttle. I think this loco is a bit beyond me.
Nice high speed train purchased to run on third world track.
It looks awesome! I can’t wait to see it working the northeast corridor
Just noticed that the cars are not flush and contoured like the locomotive. Kinda annoyed by that and idk why
The middle cars tilt, so they have a different cross-section from the power cars.
Funny, this is for already trained engineers? Reminds me of engine school to be honest
This great to watch while driving Genesis Locomotives TrainSim 2020 etc :), Sim has a few indicator lights wrong and/or was updated in more recent models ??! Always wondered what the spottier button was for 20:25 ,and Train Compartment Lights, next to Tracktion motor switches is?, 33:15 but that's GE for you. ( Customized design relatively low production numbers and million of dollars each ) They do not get everything perfect, first model runs etc.
Old outdated tech already
And in a couple of years these will be replaced by the Siemens Charger on long distance routes. Time flies.
And god help you america p42s are the "bomb"chargers are ugly junk!
