5/31/25 - EMD FL-9 No. 2026
The EMD FL-9 is a hybrid of the E and F-Unit locomotives created specifically for the New Haven Railroad. 60 locomotives were built for New Haven. They specifically were designed to enter Grand Central Terminal in New York City, with the addition of a third rail boot for underground travel. When the railway was purchased by Amtrak in the 1970s, they were repainted in Amtrak's color scheme and were also used by a variety of rail lines, all the way until 2009. Only 22 of these still exist today, and some see use. The Cape Cod Central Railway currently has two units in service. They are painted in their accurate New Haven railway heritage colors.
