A |
Though PHL has announced that they are getting low-emissions single engine locomotives from Motive-Power (see this press release) they didn't say anything about NRE gensets. Nevertheless, news that they were ordering two 3GS21B's and one 3GS21C was reported in the Trains Magazine special "Locomotive 2007" edition. |

Nearly complete PHL 33 was spotted at NRE's Mt. Vernon, IL facility in early Jan. 2008. Thanks to Mark Mautner for the sighting and photos. Builder's plate data confirmed by MMautner. |

PHL 33 and 34 were delivered together, departing Mt. Vernon in early March 2008. |
