Passenger locomotives

[Green_Elite_Cab]

Well, here is just about the last of my Passenger locomotive fleet (unless Electric Multiple Units count, then there is more!)

SEPTA also purchased an AEM7 for express Push-pull service between Center City Philadelphia and its lines to Trenton, West Trenton, and Paoli. These are SEPTA's only Passenger locomotives since the railroad became all electric in 1981. The only exception were NJ transit U34CHs that were leased during the "Railworks" project in the early 90s.





The U34CH was originally purchased by the Erie Lackawanna and the NJ DOT to operate improved commuter service between Hoboken and the EL's diesel lines in Northern New Jersey. During their time on the EL and Conrail, the U34CHs were occasionally placed in freight service on the weekends, just as long as they would be available for the Monday morning rush.
