Power for Amtrak Superliner is provided through "Head End Power", or "HEP". The trailing P42DC will throttle up and donate a portion of the electricity generated to power the train. After running around the train at Fraser, the conductor on the Winter Park Express is now hooking up the cables for the Head End Power.
