I was told they are coming up from Rock Park on the AM and back down there on the PM, that would take care of about 50 R32's anyway.Maybe by running them on the A line to any terminal that would reset the a/c system as the cars will be outside for awhile rather than being stuck underground for the entire operational day. Obviously it's a fluid situation right now. They may be trying "anything" and see what works. |

Hmm.But I don't see how they would go to Rock Park on the return trips because as far as I know ALL PM Rock Park trains come out of 207 Yd and go in service at 59. |

There are some AM intervals out of Far Rock that's supposed to be R32s. Those are the intervals that drop out at either 200 or 168. I guess 207 needed those trains for service........ |
