One unique feature of this pair of diesels is that they were modified with the ability to sync the phase of their HEP electrical output before supplying their combined output to the passenger cars of their train. The plan was to run the locomotive's generators in parallel with the power output from power car #3. Image: Photographed at Ontario, Canada shortly after leaving the factory floor in 1995. |

Like #0001, the locomotive was sold to Metrolink in Los Angeles in 1998 and served in commuter service as Metrolink SCAX 883. It was retired in ~2019. Athearn modeled #883 in HO and N scales. Image: Todd Schannuth at Los Angeles January 21, 2016. This is at least the third paint scheme it has had with Metrolink. |
