It's Finally Here! Hours of my work on (i don't know if its true) information on the MBTA, 1977 - 2022. Edit: Greenbush Line #1052 was repainted in 2007 NOT 2001
MP36 Note: The MP36’s are ex-UTA 13/14 and are both at MPI ERIE being rebuilt/overhauled for T4 Emissions. 010 is currently in rebuild while 011 is in storage there. 011 will go in as soon as MBTA Approves 010.
The MBTA isn’t actually making any plans to electrify, they are merely looking at the concept and are likely not going to move along with it due to how much debt the agency is in.
@@maluhmachadomoco oh lol, you know me from IG? I didn’t actually quit, I have been having difficulties with my computer, which is where I save my photos, and that is why I haven’t been posting. When the issue is resolved, I will be right back to posting.
Nice video. It is likely that the F40PH-3c's will not be rebuilt IF the MBTA electrifies most of their lines. Then the more modeern HSP46's will do the rest of the work.
It is probably way more economically viable if the MBTA gets engines like the ACS-64, ALP-46 or the ALP-45DP the Maintenace facility would need way less modifications and the fleet would be way more unified.
Those f units came out of service years before the GP40MC was put into service. They started to acquire the F40PH in 78, and I can tell you that they were no longer any F units in revenue service by the mid '80s. For at least 10 to 12 years, the F40PH was the only game in town for locomotive power.
Also, they did not acquire rebuilt F40PH locomotives, they had locomotives that they acquired back in the late '70s and early '80s rebuilt. Those road numbers were not reissued.
@@Track_Tranzit I thought you know Kz! If you didn’t see that video I forgot to show you video! Everything is gone and over now! Lots of people found out one way or another about my 2021 Junk!
not a huge fan of the future of the MBTA.. i dont like electric vehicles. but now trains? one thing i know is that im going to enjoy diesel mbta trains a lot while i still can.
Diesel locomotives already run on electricity, they always have. They have electric drivers that simply get their electricity from a diesel generator in the back of the locomotive versus an overhead wire or a third rail. I too will miss the rumble of the diesel engine but it really boils down to what the source of electricity is rather than a radical change or design in how locomotives work.

Not much progress on 010
Thankyou for your time today And have a wonderful day 😊
I’ve seen the greenbrush celebration locomotive #1052 along the Newburyport line!

@@mbrproductions160 i didn't know
I hope they electrify more than what they're showing!
They shoudl get Bi-Mode Stadler trains

But your forgetting why there weren't that many HSPs ordered, they are unreliable af
Side note theres a FPT10 still around (display) at the end of the line In Hyannis, Massachusetts in the yard
Great documentary!

904 is not getting rebuilt.
What About the New MBTA Coaches MBTA is ordering? Thats literally part of the future
mbta ftw

the F units were put out of service in 1991, the GP40MCs came in shortly thereafter, I also mentioned the F40s
1013 my beloved
I really hope mbta ends up electrifying. It would make rides so much nicer and would put a positive image on MA as being with the times.
Fix your CDOT train in your B&A game
Its hard man

thats what I said
They mbta needs a lot of help

I mean they have plans to use electrics on the NEC
