    From 07/20/1976 at Princeton Junction, NJ, Amtrak makes do with a sticker to cover the PC logo on this Metroliner. Of 61 built for the PRR/PC, only one Metroliner survives, safe at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania.

    A number of other ex-Metroliner cars still exist, having been converted to cab-control cars.
    However, there seems to be a plan afoot to replace those cars with (depowered) HHP locos, which would afford better crash protection to the engineer.
