MotivePower/Wabtec MP36's in VRE Red/White/Blue/Grey.

First unit should hit the home tracks by July.

Alexandria VA area railfans, you have been duly advised. ;)

Sounds like my plan to play hooky from work and head to Alexandria in June to catch as many current VRE locomotives as possible is a go.  ;D Then of course after all the new locos are delivered, I will have to play hooky again.  :P
Check out my website (listed under the web tag) for railfanning pictures from 32 states, D.C., and Ontario. Current locomotive count: 5772!

Sounds like we need a DC/Northern Va/Southern MD Railwire meetup when these start running.  I'm in whenever anyone can meet.  Alexandria, Va sounds good to me.
