Rolling Stock
See also: MARC Train#EquipmentThe Brunswick Line (like the Camden Line) is a diesel-only line. All trains are 3 to 7 cars long with usually a single diesel locomotive in push-pull configuration however some trains like 883 or 880 can operate 2 locomotives from time to time, (with cab-car end towards Union Station). The line uses primarily single level cars, with a few bilevels used for some trains. The Brunswick Line is the only line to utilize ex-Metra Pullman Gallery cars, since it's the only MARC line to use all low-level platforms on the main line between Martinsburg and Washington D.C. However, gallery cars are restricted from the Frederick Branch due to Monocacy station having a high platform.

Famous quotes containing the words rolling and/or stock:
“It is only when we are very happy that we can bear to gaze merrily upon the vast and limitless expanse of water, rolling on and on with such persistent, irritating monotony, to the accompaniment of our thoughts, whether grave or gay. When they are gay, the waves echo their gaiety; but when they are sad, then every breaker, as it rolls, seems to bring additional sadness, and to speak to us of hopelessness and of the pettiness of all our joys.”
—Emmuska, Baroness Orczy (1865–1947)
“Death and life were not
Till man made up the whole,
Made lock, stock and barrel
Out of his bitter soul,”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
