There's something exceptionally badass about regional rail during a Canadian winter night. Even if you're still hungry for more.

>Before adoption it was in development as the MP54, which going out on a limb, was for 1954.
>Sorry, it was originally the HK54, and it was the 4th type of the HK5 family of weapons
>HK roller guns are all built the same, just at different scales.
>This is basically saying "size 4"

Given how different running an MP54 would have been versus being the engineer of a K4 or something, I can absolutely see how this would have made sense in like 1930 as a union agreement

Reason 1: Sealing off the stations would be difficult and costly
Reason 2: You need conductors anyway for the doors on the trains. (These trains were not automated in the least.)
To illustrate this, here's a photo from the Transit Museum of the trains that got inherited from the PRR next to an M1

The PRR MP54 served Philly from 1915 until 1981, at which point they promptly withered into dust and blew away. The S-IV has also yet to beat the record of the Reading Blueliners, which served Philly from 1931 to 1990. In other words, these fuckers are gonna have to keep running until they explode

Chargers are the most viable option until someone goes out on a limb for something new. The MPI MP54 is a standby if the Chargers become unsustainable.

True, though the Swiss trains will have final assembly in Montreal. No company makes passenger locomotives in Canada anymore. GO’s last MP54 locomotives were made in Idaho.
But the running of trains themselves contributes to the Canadian economy regardless of where they’re made.

Productive shopping at this weekend's train show at least. Bunch of good deals yesterday (including on a brass LIRR-spec BM60), and today managed to snag a couple of MP54s (which I've been looking for at reasonable cost).

You laugh, but I think the Mexico 68 scheme could look decent on MU cars if you made the scheme horizontal (or vertical?), PC repainted a number of theirs… Good luck finding MU cars that aren’t brass, a complex kit, or require building from the ground up (or that aren’t the Con-Cor MP54)

Is that the first time an MP40/MP54 has gone that far west (the London extension trial was operated by F59PH because of weight limits on the St Mary’s bridge)?

ペンシルバニア鉄道なんかも例に挙げられるんだが、MP54系電車を30年近くも製造したり、北東回廊以外の路線ではべつに小単位輸送は不熱心だったり、ガスエレクトリックカーやRDCの運用でも後手に回りがちだったりで、言うほどにアメリカの蒸気鉄道の雄か？という感はある。

そして、ではインターアーバンで前面窓が丸窓電車がいたか、なのだが…
インターアーバンはその企業自体が小規模だったりして全数調査はとてもできそうにないのだが、15年ほど調べてみても、これといった丸窓電車の写真に接したことがない。
例外が前述のSPとその子会社の約70両なのだが、最盛期には5～6000両かそれ以上が存在したと推察されるインターアーバン電車の数からすると、あまりにも少ない。もっともMP54系などの丸窓通勤電車が誕生した時期は既にインターアーバン凋落の兆しが見え始めた頃で、ニューヨーク近郊での丸窓電車最盛期はインターアーバンの現状維持～衰退時期に重なっているというのは否定できない。

てっきり、マンハッタン島に乗り入れるための手段として同社を掌握したものだと思っていたが、ハドソン＆マンハッタン鉄道は高架鉄道並みの規格なので当初から蒸気鉄道規格のペンシルベニア鉄道車両は基本的に直通できなかった。

PRRはこの路線用にMP51系電車というのを所有して運用したようだが、どうやらこれも戦後のことらしく、実態はH&M RRの電車と全く同型で、所有権の問題らしい。MP54系電車より新しいし、むろん傍系会社のLIRRにあったMP41系電車とも関係なさそうだ。車両の要目も今のところ分かっていない。
