Since the tunnels/tubes are larger than WMATA's the MTA went for a larger car. When the car purchase was bid, Budd was the low bidder. They were also the low bidder when Miami bought their cars. They are identical to our first group of cars, the only difference is we have front signs, Miami's don't.The MTA borrowed the Rohr model for some of the early planning meetings, and strangely, it was lost and never returned to them. Nobody knows what happened to it, although I would not be surprised to find it stuffed in the rafters in a box in Building 8 someday. |
