Caltrain 907 leads a southbound into track 6 at San Jose Diridon. 907 is one of 5 Caltrain F40PH-2s that was never rebuilt with a separate HEP generator. Instead these 5 had the HEP system directly connected to the engine system. These "stock" units can be distinguished from the rebuilt examples by the presence of a rear walkway at the end of the carbody and a distinct growl when stopped. This is caused by the engine running at a continuous higher RPM when the HEP system is running, even when the locomotive is idling at stations. 907 was built in 1985 by EMD. |
