Metro-North GE P32AC-DM
The GE P32AC-DM was developed for passenger service where dual-mode operation was essential, allowing locomotives to operate by diesel power outside the city and electric third-rail power in restricted terminal areas. Metro-North’s fleet has become closely associated with service into Grand Central Terminal, making the P32AC-DM an important modern commuter locomotive for New York-area passenger operations.
