Say Kev, how often did you run local up the Grand Councourse during the PM rush? You said a while back that your PM run was the last Concourse local before rush hour and that on occasion you'd switch the marker light on the cab side from white to green and got the express lineup. |

In fact, I think the EXP/LOCAL lights were used on the 7 until 2001 or so, when the TA stopped repairing them, as the trains were set for imminent reefing.And, in a sense, with the Green circle and Red diamond, they've been brought back to the 7! |

Had to do with a resistor inside the cab above the cab door burning up and causing a smoke condition inside the cab. Don't know why it suddenly started causing problems.Michael |

All other services are 100% PA5 but the end signs follow the color codes for their respective routes.Vader |
