Model description:
A model of the proposed high-speed non-electrified
locomotive from Bombardier, in Bombardier/USDOT and VIA Rail Canada
livery. Also includes matching USDOT/VIA Rail trainsets.
Bombardier Jet Train History
A prototype commissioned by the U.S Government for high-speed rail service
without the costly infrastructure of electrification, this jet-powered
locomotive is based on Bombardier's Acela Express locomotive. Only existing
as a prototype, it is configured for use with conventional Amfleet and
Horizon equipment for testing at Pueblo, Colorado. As potential candidates
for the State of Florida's High Speed Rail Initiative and for the VIA
HSR Route, these locomotives would be married to Acela Express-type
cars (for use at both high and low platforms) in sets similar to that
of the Acela Express trainsets.
