"Over time as the pure DC EMUs are retired in due time and replaced by multivoltage AC/DC EMUs the system would become completely flexible."Just because one aspect of the system becomes flexible does not make the entire system flexible. "But they will need to buy new cars to allow for the additional trains and passengers the extension will bring. Those new cars will displace perfectly usable C3s well before the end of their useful lifetimes." The extent of any additions of third rail territory in the foreseeable future would not require buying so many new cars that any C-3s will be junked. |
