New MetroLink Bilevel train cars

[BRIANA]

I'm Sure all of you have heard about the New MetroLink Bilevels. I honestly Like em.

To Me it looks like they Fused a Surfliner car with a F59PHi

Naa it is more a Genesis type locomotive fused with a bi-level.

Ohh I see it now I was watching a video of it and on the side it looks like a F59PHI face fused with a surfliner car

 

[Truemac]

Whatever they are, they look awkward. What next, cab cars with the nose of an F40PH?
(And don't say anything about the Cabbages, they don't count and you know it)

 

[BRIANA]

I do like these Bilevels though. weird thing is they brought them through the yard my Dad works in I think it was North Bergen or Oak Island I forgot

 

[UP5521]

this is the first time I ever seen something like that!

 

[BStyles]

Okay, that's just amazing!

 

[JCitron]

They're pretty cool looking.

The MBTA is still running F40PHs with Horizon cars! We're due to get some new equipment someday soon (tm).

Obviously not made in America(see third picture)

Nonetheless, interesting bilevels Ill give them that. I wonder if that cab will change how the car hits a road vehicle on a crossing. Just a thought.

Thats only reason why they bought them. They are crash efficient they will divert the impact away from the passengers.

Well thats good. But becouse it is just as light as a normal car, wouldnt it still jump? Like we have seen the Metrolink cars do before?

Well that would make me feel really safe riding on those things now.:hehe: I don't feel safe in a Hyundai with 4 rubber wheels that drive on pavement, let alone one of these things.

You Just made me remember what I was Thinking. It was a What if Thought, Like what If Cadillac, Ford, Chrysler, and Chevrolet Made Trains

Cadillac and Chevrolet are both owned by General Motors, so they'd probably look something like this:
