Reply to "METRA to Purchase SD70MACs for commuter service."

Just for the record, we never had a track/train dynamics derailment of an SDP40F on Santa Fe, and we ran them long distances, fast. We even bought a group of them from Amtrak and re-fitted them for freight service.  No problems at all.  And I did not get this information from reading railfan magazines.  I was there.

It sounds to me like Metra is going to be getting a good deal on good locomotives.
