SCAX 905 |
| Description: |
Metrolink's first (and, so far, only) F125 will be on display at Los Angeles Union Station on Monday, July 18, 2016. The engine arrived a day early to get set up. Metrolink 905 is an EMD F125 - the date on the builder's sticker is 5/1/2016, and the builder's number is 20126849-003. Rumor has it that these engines do not have blended braking (a combination of dynamic and regular braking) and, if the prime mover has a problem and shuts down, the Head End Power also quits working. That could make for some very uncomfortable passengers if the engine quits! |

If you cross your eyes and let them go out of focus, it kind of, sort of, looks like an F-unit. Maybe. OK, not really. But, still, it is an F-unit. This is the front view of EMD's new F125 passenger diesel. So far, southern California's Metrolink is the only customer for these locomotives (and, as of July 17, 2016, they have taken delivery of only one). SCAX F125 905 is preparing for its "debut" the next day, July 18, at Los Angeles Union Station. |
