Amtrak No. 601 is an ACS-64 type electric locomotive built by Siemens Mobility (exact date and year unknown) for the National Railroad Passenger Corporation, also known as Amtrak. It is one of 70 ACS-64 type locomotives built for Amtrak to run on their electrified Northeast Corridor between Washington DC and Boston, MA. They were initially meant to replace Amtrak's older AEM-7 type locomotives and unreliable HHP-8 type locomotives.
It was placed into service with Amtrak in February 2014 and operated in high-speed passenger service until it was badly wrecked in the Philadelphia train derailment, also known as the Amtrak 188 incident, that occurred on May 12, 2015. It was originally thought to be repairable, but due to the severity of the damage it sustained from the derailment, it was later confirmed to be deemed damaged beyond repair.
After the Chatsworth train collision that occurred on September 12, 2008, H.R. 2095, the Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008, was enacted by Congress and signed into law by former President George W. Bush on October 16, 2008. Most notably, this bill led to the creation of Positive Train Control (PTC), with final regulations being published on January 15, 2010. The original deadline for the PTC system was to have it fully implemented by December 31, 2015, but before that could happen, the Amtrak 188 incident happened on May 12 of that year, which ultimately revealed that railroad companies, including Amtrak, weren't fully on track for the deadline. So the PTC deadline was extended to December 31, 2018 from a bill signed by former President Barack Obama on October 29, 2015. Following the passage of H.R. 3763, the Surface Transportation Reauthorization and Reform Act of 2015, alongside approval from the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), the PTC deadline was extended again to December 31, 2020. As of December 29, 2020, it is believed that PTC is now fully implemented on all 57,536 required freight and passenger railroad route miles.
As of today, it is currently being used as a source of spare parts alongside sister ACS-64 type locomotive No. 627, which was also deemed damaged beyond repair after striking a backhoe in Chester, PA one year later on April 3, 2016.
