And because of that the SIR would be reconnected to the mainland and because of that only "FRA class III" rail cars would be permitted.His argument is also that the CBTC equipment is a physical part of the R211s, that NORAC rules are better and that the signal system work they did a few years ago means only the M9As should run there. It's his opinion that the SIR should be returned to its "heritage". Nevermind he wants to saddle Transit with equipment it can't care for and it eclectically incompatible with the current system. Or the fact that for 90 years the line's equipment has followed the designs of the subway. The MUE-1s were based on the AB Standards, then the R44s came, and now we're on to the NTT era, the 211s are only logical. |
