I think all 18 of the Amtrak owned P32's were/are slated for retirement some time in 2014. Seeing as they are still being used regularly all across the country, I don't see that happening until Amtrak gets more new diesel-electric locomotives or repairs the other 15 or so P40's that are in Beech Grove and Bear, DE now. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next 5 years. Thank you for the comment!

Nice horn action. I'm surprised seeing 509 as I thought that Amtrak had retired the entire -Pepsi Can- fleet. Especially considering that Amtrak is already going through the procedures for their future -fleet- locomotive and that EMD will be throwing its hat in the ring again, along with GE and Bombardier.

I realize that I'm about seven years too late, but why didn't they just put one locomotive on each end when they built the consist so they didn't have to do the power move in order to change directions? Also, is this still a annual thing?
