I can't see 12.5 kV 60 Hz in the specification. Where did this information come from and which railroads use this system? Biscuittin ( talk) 21:38, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Does 3 x 480 V/60 Hz mean three separate single-phase supplies or one 3-phase supply? Biscuittin ( talk) 13:03, 13 July 2010 (UTC) Fan Railer ( talk) 14:07, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
Are these Continuous Tractive Effort figures correct? ALP-45DP: 292 kN, whereas PL42AC: only 120 kN? Tim PF ( talk) 01:52, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Does anyone have any idea on which routes NJT intend to use these locomotives? I had inferred that they were originally ordered for the now cancelled Access to the Region's Core (Trans Hudson Express Tunnel), and I guess that it was probably cheaper to continue with these orders, even if they end up being used on existing diesel-only or electric-only routes.

This is interesting and ought to be looked at for reference material in the expansion of the article: http://intranet.imet.gr/Portals/0/UsefulDocuments/documents/02421.pdf Fan Railer ( talk) 14:07, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
In http://www05.abb.com/global/scot/scot326.nsf/veritydisplay/2cb85de0f43836f3c12578260051d829/$file/railvolution06-10-traction-transformer.pdf it says NJT rulings regarding safety in tunnels, each fuel tank compartment has a capacity of just 400 gallons (1,514 litres), ie. of 4 x 400 gallons in total
But everywhere else it says two fuel tanks (also in http://intranet.imet.gr/Portals/0/UsefulDocuments/documents/02421.pdf) eg The two (2) fuel tanks are fully integrated into the structure as important structural components and Each tank has a capacity of about 900 US gallons (3400 l).
There must be 2 in AMT and 4 in NJT ?? Oranjblud ( talk) 21:51, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
After viewing some videos on the internet, I've made a conclusion that it's pneumatic. So prior to disconnecting form power grid (catenery), a blast of air is given to blow off the electric arc, then the pantograph drops. You can hear it in those vids. in this video I am not an author of this video, but I've put the correct time codes in comments. GK tramrunner RU ( talk) 00:45, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
