The EMD F59PH1 was first built in 1994 and is a mainstay of modern commuter rail services across North America.  The locomotive is powered by a 3,200 horse power prime mover and features a streamlined composite carbody for lighter weight and easy access for maintenance. Units feature head end power units to provide power to the passenger cars in tow. The F59PH1 is capable of speeds of 110 MPH, but is currently limited due to shared trackage and track limitations.
