Spend it while you got it! Nice catch. Strange to see "stimulus" go towards something American made.

I guess Il go along with Mitch on this one, and I wish the leaders at Amtrak would take a long look at this nice paint job, why cant Amtrak do something like this? Very nice and colorful, better than the beached whale paint job on those P-42s.

It looks like a bug.

Stimulus money spending needs to be 100% American made. That's why some towns couldn't buy police cars like the Impala, it's made in Canada

It may not be pretty but it's incredibly efficient and cost effective. Fast too..

FYI, VRE does not use the "-3S" variant of the MP36PH. They own the "-3C" variant. The "-3S" denotes a static inverter to produce HEP while the "-3C" denotes a Cummins auxiliary generator for HEP needs. The only operation that uses the "-3S" version is Chicago's Metra.

I think it is cool looking. If it is also efficient and fast, what is not to like?
