Posted by Olog-hai on Wed Apr 11 01:41:13 2018, in response to Re: $787K Study Seeks to Find Ways to Encourage Subway Riders to Ride LIRR and MNRR, posted by Henry R32 #3730 on Tue Apr 10 23:16:12 2018. The Arrow IIIs were scheduled for a second rebuild. The first rebuild excluded extant technologies such as "long doors" and automatic variable-tap transformers for no reason. Same with the Comet I rebuild excluding long doors for high-platform operation and exchanging 2-2 reversible seating for 3-2 fixed seating.And the Arrow IIs were retired after just 23 years. The ALP-44s were indeed just fine, as were the Comet IIIs. The latter were deliberately left out in a particular storm. The MLVs having fixed seating is one of their big minuses. NJT is notoriously bad when it comes to maintenance. |
