AMTK 948 |
| Description: |
Awaiting its departure time at Washington DCs Union Station, Amtrak AEM-7AC 948 is in charge of one of the carriers many, many Northeast Regional trains, which connect population centers all along the eastern seaboard. Buit as an AEM-7 in 1988, and converted to AC power in July 2001, motor 948 is nearling the end of its service life as Amtraks 900s are replaced with newer Siemens-built 600-class ACS-64 locomotives.

| Description: |
Considering that Amtraks AEM-7 electric locomotives are being retired, the engineroom is still much cleaner than it would be in a diesel-electric locomotive. This is one of the two hallways in AEM-7AC 948 (built in 1988), which has the components arrayed in the center of the locomotive. (Photogaphed on railroad property with permission and full PPFE.) |
