Due to the fact that (for years) NJT has had almost NO "responsible adult cost control" many of these units were lavished with rather heavy late-life maintenance and are in fairly-decent shape, they were just sidelined because some folks at the top *insisted* that they be replaced by newer equipment (a lot of which is not nearly as reliable as the stuff it replaced!)

NjTransit is also a purchasing agent. They sold almost all the F40s even though they were reliable and better just to get some extra scratch and fuck over the Raritan Valley Line.

Perhaps one of the greatest catches of all time. I wonder what happened to the rest of the locomotives that were not rescued. And I also wonder what happened to the locomotives and equipment that made it to the MMC.

Hi, no one is sure what happened to all of those locomotives, but I do know that 4118 and 4107 are sitting in the MMC for all of these years. No one knows when they're going to be released or if they're going to be released but for now they have a lifetime subscription and warranty next to the remaining ALP-44s.

All the F40PH-2CATs in the lineup were eventually put on an equipment rescue along with a Comet IV cab car. The rescue known as NJTR X4105 lead by NJ Transit GP40PH-2B 4105. All equipment in the maneuver is stored at the MMC, but the location of the Arrows are unknown. Soon 4119 and 4120 will visit their family at the MMC..and possibly become friends with the ALP-44s that are forsaken on the Lackawanna Cutoff. 4119 and 4120 were not in the lineup and were the emergency backups that were eventually put back into service in 2018. All engines in the lineup will not be put back into revenue service.

Awesome catch. That may be the end of the line for those units though. Either ways, does Garwood see a lot of people in the morning? It seems like the least needed station around since most of the areas are nothing but stores and plaza's. Not to mention the same buses serve Cranford and Westfield, it just doesn't seem like a useful station anymore.

Unfortunately, all units in the lineup will never serve NJ Transit's revenue service lines. Garwood was a bad place to store them for the time being because the station was an easy way to get to the siding where the deadline was because it was very close to the deadline.
