Reply to comment by ChrisFromLongIsland in More than 20% of LIRR trains can’t fit into Grand Central Madison tunnel by Nscience

I thought only the diesel electric hybrids that take power from the 3rd rail can only go in the east river tunnel? Which I think the lirr has less than 10 engines that do that? The rest are pure diesel.

Weird article we knew this about the north tunnel already. Since the beginning of construction .

What should be even more surprising that they are still using Diesel trains in this day and age.
