Heritages In Penn. On the night of April 30, 2024, Amtrak Train 239 was sitting on Track 5 with P32AC-DM AMTK 701 in its retro Phase III Empire Service paint scheme next to NJ TRANSIT Train 6273 on Track 4 with ALP-46A NJTR 4640 in its 40th anniversary "disco stripe" paint scheme in Penn Station, New York, New York. For many years in the modern era, observers could be heard saying that all of the new equipment was uninteresting and unremarkable. It would be hard to identify a particular point in time when heritage paint schemes recalling earlier designs used by railroads or predecessors became popular, but the idea has spread across the metropolitan New York City area passenger railroads, making it a great time to be trackside.
Not
