Metroliner Cab car

The ex-metroliner cab car is a NPCU (non-powered control unit) cab car made from the Budd Metroliner Electric multiple unit, when Amtrak inherited the metroliners from penn central when it started in May 1st 1971, during their run they were proven to be mechanically very unreliable, Since The trainsets were, except for the propulsion systems, a near-identical match to the Amfleet coaches were converted (29 of them) into NPCU cab cars. While the rest either converted into geometry cars, work trains, DOT Trains or scrapped. The fleet numbers for them are 9630–9652, 9709, 9822, 9825–9828. And primary used on the keystone, valley flyer and Hartford lines. They along with the amfleet coaches will be replaced by Siemens venture/airo trainsets in the early 2030s

One day on the Amtrak Keystone train to New York, I realized this would be one of the last times I’d experience the Metroliner cab car before the Siemens Venture trainsets took over. A group of girls boarded a few rows behind me, their laughter cutting through the train’s hum. One girl stood out: a VSCO girl with an oversized scrunchie, high-waisted shorts, and of course, her bright Pink hydroflask

As she fumbled with her drink, the sounds of “sksksks” filled the air, followed by an exaggerated “and I oop!” I glanced back, and saw her filming a TikTok while her friends dropped their flasks. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any more chaotic, she caught my eye and shot me a bright smile. “Do you want to be in it?” she called, her voice bursting with energy.

“Sure, why not?” I replied, feeling my annoyance fade. Maybe this was the future of train travel: a mix of the old and the new, blending memories with modern trends.

As I joined their TikTok, we struck silly poses, and I found myself laughing at the absurdity of it all. For a moment, we were just kids having fun on a train, capturing a fleeting memory. Despite their vibrant energy being so different from my past train rides, I realized that change could be okay. I might miss the Metroliner cab car, but this unexpected adventure would stick with me long after the trains had changed.

EMD

You dirty minded people. EMD doesn’t mean “eAt mY dIcK”. it means ELECTRO-MOTIVE DIESEL. A brand that makes diesel-electric locomotives, locomotive products, and diesel engines used in the rail industry. Originally founded in 1922 as Electro-Motive Engineering Corporation, it was acquired by General Motors in 1930 and became GM's Electro-Motive Division. In 2005, GM sold it to Greenbriar Equity Group and Berkshire Partners, and by 2010 it was bought by Progress Rail, a subsidiary of Caterpillar. EMD is known for producing some of the most iconic locomotives in the world, including the famous F-series and SD-series engines.

Rapid transit series

The RTS Bus was the BEST TRANSIT BUS EVER MADE. It was made by multiple companies General motors (1977-1987), Transportation Manufacturing Corporation (1987–1995), Nova Bus (1995-2003) and Millennium Transit Services (2006–2012). They are powered by a couple of engines from caterpillar, Detroit Diesel and Cummins and pair with Allison or ZF transmissions. The RTS especially the RTS-06 made by nova bus were so popular and they were featured in a lot of movies based on NYC and also one of NYCT’s best bus they operated, they rode really nice, their A/C is cold and nice, their engine makes a nice sound as it goes (just like a HEMI) and they are the best looking bus ever made. Sadly MTA NYCT and other companies like NJ Transit retired all of them in 2018-2019 how sad that is 😢

Greg: remember when we used to go to elementary school together and take the Rapid Transit series?

Logan: what’s that??

Greg: I mean those nice looking RTS-06 nova buses we used to ride as kids.

Logan: oohhh yeahhhhh!!!!! I rememberd riding them, I love smelling their exhaust cuz it smeels so nice and I love seeing the big steering wheel and I miss seating in the back seat of them

Greg: man, the old days are the Best days, now everything sucks in the modern day from shitty rap music to LFSA buses 😔

Logan: I agree with you Greg, the old days was the best

Bum-bum

1. An informal term for the buttocks.
2. Bum-bum hole can also be a term for the anus

1. While riding on the Amtrak keystone train to nyc on the metroliner cab car ( or amfleet cab car) #9645. I saw this lady with a crop top and a very tight pum pum shorts and with a huge, sexy and firm buttocks, many guys onboard the train & the conductor was flirting around her, and I was about to slap that sexy bum-bum but she had a guy (an ugly guy) sitting next to her so I didn’t :(
