Send In the Reserves |
| Description: |
As NJ Transit continues to work through the testing phases of PTC across the system the commuter railroad has found itself short of power. In an effort to alleviate the stress of the demands of the PTC program a pair of unlikely veterans have been pulled from the benches to take a few swings. Train #1171 departs Hoboken on a later summer afternoon with NJ Transit's last two active F40s, the 4119 and 4120. "The Twins" were paired up on this train as part of a shakedown run in their first revenue passenger runs in years without any other HEP-equipped power to assist. The plan was to let them run a fairly simple cycle of trains for a few days so they can be easily monitored. If all went well both would be split apart and released into active service by themselves. Unfortunately the 4119 suffered a minor failure that only allowed it to run a single round trip. The following morning both engines were removed and sent back to the MMC with the intention of returning as soon as the issues are resolved. |

Twilight Twins |
| Description: |
Minutes after the sun slipped below the horizon NJ Transit's "twins" rumble across the Hackensack River with Train #1171 to Suffern, NY at HX Drawbridge. The pair have been running together for most of the week as part of an ongoing effort alleviate the stresses of NJ Transit's PTC testing program. With so many locomotives tied up in daily testing these two "retired" veterans have been filling in for passenger service out of Hoboken. The 4119 would suffer a mechanical failure later in this run that once again makes an uncertain future for this pair in passenger service. |
