AFAI-Heard, the HHP-8s were never that good from the word go, and if they are going to be mechanical basket cases, always being out of service the way they have been, and sometimes still are, there is no point in keeping them around as they are probably expensive to keep fixing and getting parts, and also for their cost do no good if they are not doing what they were purchased to do, and that's provide the service and operation as needed daily.And the LIRR DE/DM class hardly are out of service to the amount the HHP-8s have been. |
