Rolling Stock Solutions is poised to assist North America’s commuter rail operations to meet a critical demand for locomotive power by rebuilding F40PH models from the ground up with a new, 20-year service life.
We’re set to deliver our first locomotive this summer with the 10th locomotive being completed in the summer of 2024.
It’s critical for commuter rail operators to understand the process we’re taking is not a standard overhaul. We’re completely stripping our locomotives down to the sub frame and rebuilding them, integrating new safety and technological improvements to provide safer, more reliable locomotives for the train crew and commuter rail passengers. Taking this approach ensures that each locomotive is rebuilt to the latest FRA safety standards along with reduced maintenance requirements, improved reliability, and enhanced performance.
Throughout the remanufacturing process RSS will provide regular detailed updates starting with the work being undertaken to completely rebuild the locomotive cab. The new crashworthy cab and nose assembly being installed in the video meets the FRA and AAR S-580 requirements.
Rolling Stock Solutions is excited to announce its participation in the American Public Transportation Association TRANSform Conference and EXPO next week from October 8th -13th.
Experience the power that drives our locomotives as we dive into the installation process of a remanufactured, like-new F40PH engine and generator.
A key step in Rolling Stock Solutions’ remanufacturing and installation process: replacing the locomotive’s high voltage cabinet.
