Passenger Trains > Classic Amtrak GEsDate: 04/19/14 13:25 Classic Amtrak GEs Author: Necer149 The B32-8WH locomotive is a beast. That's all I can really say about them. Twenty of these GEs were delivered to Amtrak in 1991. And they are still running strong about 23 years later. Here, I catch #512 still in phase IV paint on train #43. And #514 in phase V paint on train #42. Taken at Exton, PA on the westbound platform (north side), #43 does not stop at Exton, while #42 does. Thanks for watching!

I always though they looked great on a Superliner train, especially #1 & #2 when they still used the Phoenix line and were big trains, 14 cars counting the 10 & 6 to NYP and the baggage car. Date: 04/19/14 15:52 Re: Classic Amtrak GEs Author: RuleG GettingShort Wrote:

For the past two years, B32s have often been assigned to trains 42 & 43. Date: 04/20/14 12:54 Re: Classic Amtrak GEs Author: 8notch on #514 the ditch lights were not on? Is this common or does the ditch lights on activate when the horn is blown?
Thanks. Date: 04/23/14 05:37 Re: Classic Amtrak GEs Author: KV1guy As long as the ditch light circuit breaker is "on" on the EC panel, the ditch lights will flash when the horn is activated, then turn off again if the desktop switch is not in the on position.
