Growth, on Long Island?? Somebody, please, tell the MTA and LIRR -- this will undoubtedly be news to them. The LIRR "needed" this unique equipment because it...
Ken is correct. Any future expansion East of Ronk or Babylon would be cheapest done using diesel equipment. If expansion is blocked because the requirement to...
How long would it take to get "off the shelf" locos "up" so that the failing equipment can be abandoned?? Are we talking less than a year to start seeing the...
There is no off-the-shelf locomotive laying out there for purchase unless the LIRR can find a way to purchase (heavily-used) Genesis Dual-Modes from Amtrak. I...
