Sadly, that's the only one that will receive that scheme.

Heritage units has this P42 trackable because it’s the only one wearing phase VII, but they stated it will be delisted if other P42’s get this scheme.

@@utahrailfan1946from what I got from Amtrak once more Chargers get broken into all remaining P42s will get the Phase VII scheme. The heritage units and P40s will not get the Phase VII.

@@trume12So it sounds like they'll be running the P42's for a little longer. That's nice.

for some reason my friends hate it, they love phase VI but as soon as they add stripes and another blue they hate it. I love it tho!

The ALC-42s have the model numbers as well. I think it’s becoming a part of Amtrak’s scheme now.

@@banksrail oh yeah I forgot about those, along with the SC-44s and ACS-64s

Yup! P42s built in the 2000s were selected to stick around longer while we wait for Airo train sets, I read something that said we should expect 82 and 106 to wear the scheme in the coming weeks

Funny enough, he did make an edit of a p42 in phase 7

@@railfangarrett6313this P42DC is a Solid 10 out of 10

Pretty sure video can’t be photoshopped, lol

@@IronHorsefan1869 i saw the thumbnail and that's what my mind thought of, i didn't think the thumbnail was actually a still shot of a video.

@@gamingwithlukeJToH Either way I'm happy they're doing this

You’ll be happy to hear that more are on the way with this paint!

it may lead tomorrows P030

I heard from workers that they are actually going to be repainting all Remaining P42s to the new paint scheme from now on! They have another almost finished and one waiting!

@@IronHorsefan1869 Figured as much, they stopped ordering Phase V materials altogether

@@frankf.addison1522 good, phase V is nothing to go out of my way for and nothing to look at, the only Grey Diesels that are cool looking are the SP bloody nose units

More will be painted like it!

I really hope I could see at least one on the Coast Starlight or Empire Builder

This actually isn’t a heritage. From now on Amtrak will be painting its equipment into this Phase VII paint scheme. More P42s that are not being retired will be getting this scheme.

It ain't a heritage unit

I really enjoy the periodical, I’m gonna try to start my own news series

Oh that came out of Beech Grove and is being transported back to Southern California via Long Distance Amtrak trains

@@Rohrbach17 So they’re rebuilding the Surfliner cars?

@@IronHorsefan1869I believe it’s an interior refurbishment project rather than a rebuild

@@AmtrakandAWVRFan I figured, but given the current wear of the surfs they need a rebuild

@@IronHorsefan1869im pretty sure it was there because it had to get its bell fixed

Opposite. They were coming from Beech Grove.

P42s have a 2 step solenoid. 1st step is half blast and 2nd step is full blast. The ALC-42s have them too.

@@TommyBNSFyup

They’ll probably stick around on intercity routes since the ALCs are for long distance. After Airos come in, they might even stay as extra power or rescue units.

@@MrMarshmallow26 far from the case SC-44s took over most of the intercity trains

They will being staying on other routes without Chargers from what I heard. Otherwise this paint scheme is useless.

@@davidng2336 here in Michigan P42s weren’t the main locomotives for over five years.

@@carlyrembowski9717 but on the Downeaster, Chargers have yet to make an appearance.

174 and the first 2 cars behind it were deadheading from Beech Grove back to Chicago. Everything else behind that is the normal Cardinal consist.

How can you like that old disgusting tasteless phase vomit scheme? It has no class, no style and barely any color, I’m overjoyed that eyesore of a scheme is going away, they made our passenger trains look atrocious.

@@IronHorsefan1869 i think it's a nice understated dignified scheme. This one looks like a flashy teenager trying to show off his new shoes.

@@betterl8thannvr Disagreed, the old scheme looks awful, it makes American Passenger Trains look outdated, this new scheme gives Amtrak style again, you do you but phase V is not only my most hated Amtrak Scheme but my most hated Railroad scheme overall! It’s about time Amtrak rebranded themselves as flashy! We have no excuse not to have flashy trains, the rest of the world has awesome trains and we should too, and this is another step in that direction

@@IronHorsefan1869that’s why the ALC-42s have it☠️

@@user2834 And there’s Nothing Wrong with both having them!

Bc it’s going to beech grove shops in Indianapolis

It’s going to beech grove shops in indianapolis

Most likely, on its way back to California.

Amtrak has a facility in Beech Grove right by Indianapolis so it’s possible they attached the locomotive and passenger car to the consist for until they got to Indianapolis. That’s my guess anyway

Better than that disgusting phase V trash.

@@TrainsAreReallyCool I heard from an Amtrak worker that that’s not Gonna be the case, good thing too because I’d be so pissed.
