Mark Redmond	General	What is with the bars in front of the windshield?	10/12/2010 10:15:16 AM

Christopher Palmieri	General	The bars are to protect the crew and windows from objects thrown at the train or suspended from bridges by vandals.	10/12/2010 10:33:00 AM

Gregg Bartley	General	I was trying to figure out what is up with the NH logo on the nose. It wasn't registering with me. Then I realized that the outside bits of both letters are faded so you can't see them very well. Until I realized that,it was like I was looking at some mathmatical symbols or something. That certainly is an interesting mix of power, not something I would have ever imagined together.	10/12/2010 4:25:54 PM

Jonelle DeFelice	General	They were once known in a less PC era (no pun intended) as ghetto-bars...	10/13/2010 7:02:49 PM

Kirk Henderson	General	While at first glance they do look like an odd couple they are both ALCO freight locomotives and are identical under the hood. Both have 12 cylinder 244 engines that produce 1600 hp. (Or 1500 hp. in early models.) The bars on the windows were common on locomotives operating in the Boston area and are still used (as far as I know) on MBTA trains.	10/14/2010 2:28:33 PM

Bernie Feltman	General	Why must vandals try to break the windshield? Very nice photo	10/16/2010 1:04:30 PM

Randy Kotuby	General	A real classic lashup. Thanks for sharing.	10/16/2010 2:44:00 PM

Bob Beaumont	General	Very Nice! Is this FA still around and what was its NH number?	5/22/2018 12:25:48 AM
