Re: Retirement Plans for R44/46?

I haven't read this whole thread, but I'm pretty sure the R32s are going to outlive every subway car that is to be retired within this decade. As for the R44s and the R46s, the R44s will definitely go first because I've heard (and agree) that they're poorly built crap boxes. R46s are good so they'll be around for a bit. R44s however are poorly built, are poor performers, and still have technical problems (remember the P-wire?) to this day.

If there's anything I put in that's incorrect, please correct me.
