My opinion on the look of the M9 cars both pros and cons. 4.) Propulsion and air brake sound. 5.) ...and that car #9002 wasn't the head car for the first revenue run. why are these cons? The M1's and M3's had the same droning noise, same blueprint, and were compatible. As for those horns, it didn't...

Thanks guys. That page in the link says that M-3's and M-7's have the same model horns. That's hard to believe since they never sounded alike, even before the M-7's had the muffling devices installed. Is it possible for the same horns to sound different on different model cars? Absolutely! It all d...

Gonna be chasing from LV to Tuscan

M9s entering revenue service tomorrow.

Anyone else notice how the horn is set up? Gone is the 5-chime K horn; replaced with two single K bells on either side of the windshield. These things are going to sound weird.

Still ironing out software bugs. Something with the doors not behaving.

There could be more wiggle room if the fuel tank is reduced from 5000 gals down to 1500 or 2000 (the F40PH's came with a 1500 capacity). A 3,000 gal fuel reduction should take off around 18,000 lbs, plus the steel is probably another 2,000 lbs. Even if you reduced the fuel tank size, you're pretty ...

How hard is it for people to accept the fact that these won't have genset HEP?..... The F59's came as-is from Amtrak. The SD70MACH's will come from rebuild. I think people are also forgetting that most SD70MACs have an as-built weight of 415,000 lbs. Assuming an upper limit of 432,000 lbs, that doe...

Maybe the third time's a charm....
