There is a good chance i'll be getting an additional Silverliner III, and I'll likely be picking up another Silverliner IV during the summer. My SEPTA fleet is coming along quite nicely. If i didn't already have a bunch of Arrow IIIs, i'd almost consider jumping ship to Philadelphia.
These are neat MUs, and they are the last PRR passenger car order. In fact, they have a weird "left hand" engineer seating for planned (but never implemented) Pay as you go ticketing. I'll probably also paint this one in SEPTA/Penn Central pain, as well as maybe repaint the old brass Silverliner II MU cars i have to match.
This my my Current Pair of Silverliner IIIs. There were really only very few of these, even when they were new. There were always more Silverliner IIs, and later, MANY more Silverliner IVs in service around Philly. Three is probably the most you'd ever find in a row! Unless i find another Silverliner III at a VERY good price, i think i've got my fill of these units.
This new one will probably be #232. I was originally going to do 232, but i ended up doing 236 instead.
