Virginia Railway Express MP36PH Loco and Bi-Level Commuter Cars

MPI MP36PH Loco

The Motive Power International MP36PH is used by a number of cities across the country for commuter service, their often distinctive and colorful paint schemes serving to make these locomotives the “figureheads” for local commuter service.

VRE Gallery Bi-Level Coach Car

VRE Gallery Bi-Level Cab Car

The modern Nippon Sharyo-built Gallery Bi-Level is based off of the same concept as the original Santa Fe “El Capitan” Bi-level design concept, whose success went on to inspire such double decker cars as Amtrakâ€™s Superliners and the Bombardier Bi-Level car which is also used in commuter service.
