Long Island Rail Road rolling stock
The Long Island Rail Road owns an electric fleet of 836 M7 and 170 M3 electric multiple unit cars, and 134 C3 bilevel rail cars powered by 24 DE30AC diesel-electric locomotives and 21 DM30AC dual-mode locomotives.〔(Consultant's assessment of the LIRR ), Page 21〕
==Current and future stock==
In 1997 and 1998, the LIRR received 134 double-decker C3 passenger cars from Kawasaki, including 23 cab control cars, and 46 General Motors Electro-Motive Division diesel-electric locomotives (23 diesel DE30ACs and 23 dual-mode DM30ACs) to pull them, allowing trains from non-electric territory to access Penn Station for the first time in many years,〔Railway Age, (For Long Island Rail Road, a new diesel fleet ), April 1995〕〔Railway Age, (Long Island Rail Road - In Transit - repair contract ), August 2002〕 due to the prohibition on diesel operation in the East River Tunnels leading to Penn Station. They were also the first trains with computerized voices (complete with LED sign displays) announcing stations along the routes. However, over the years of service the automated announcements and LED displays usually do not work, consequently enabling the conductors to announce the stations, as complaints from many riders.
Starting in 1999, the LIRR bought 836 new electric M7 electric multiple units from Bombardier, replacing its M1 cars.〔Nick Anastasi, Railway Age, (Long Island Rail Road to buy 678 new rail cars ), May 17, 2002〕〔Business Wire, (Bombardier Receives Orders Valued at $425 Million US from Metro-North Railroad and Long Island Rail Road for Additional M-7 Electric Multiple Units ), July 22, 2005〕 These cars have an automatic station announcement and LED sign display system.〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4vOjoBCGxA〕 Delivery started in the early 2000s, with the first ones beginning revenue service in October 2002.
On September 19, 2013, it was announced that the LIRR would procure new M9/M9A cars from Kawasaki.〔(MTA Press Release, September 19, 2013 )〕 This procurement includes a firm initial order of 92 cars. Given sufficient funding, another 324 cars will be ordered. The cars will replace the M3s and expand the fleet in preparation for service into Grand Central Terminal via the East Side Access.〔https://web.archive.org/web/20140801140126/http://web.mta.info/mta/news/books/pdf/140728_1200_CPOC.pdf〕 The cars will be assembled at Kawasaki's plant in Yonkers.
