Headed To The Wye. On Friday, November 15, 2024, MTA Metro-North Railroad's first Siemens SC42-DM, MNCW 301, was brought to Mott Haven with MN 1 to be turned. This dual mode locomotive is one of 33 on order to start to replace the railroad's General Electric P32s. Though similar to the all diesel design of the SC-44 and ALC-42, these locomotives also had to go to the testing center in Pueblo, Colorado for full evaluation before delivery to Metro-North. The SC42s are being prepared for testing prior to entering passenger service. The short consist is seen passing through the Marble Hill section of New York, New York on the Harlem River.
