Looks like 50 has been moved to the back of the shop with the retired ALCO and F unit gel train cab cars at Wayne Junction.
Hopefully SEPTA (and John Q taxpayer) gets their money refunded from the company that rebuilt 50.
What was wrong with this albatross of a locomotive that it never made it through one 92-day inspection period on the road? Was it the prime movers, running gear, electrical system, or just a lousy experiment?

Still on the wire train. Finally after a 4? 5? year rebuild, placed in useful service.

As of tonight, it was on the Wayne Junction wire train sitting on the stub track next to the substation.
