I wonder if Metrolink's buying into the "coffin car" talking point . . . (funny how none of their big accidents happened when Amtrak was operating the trains, only when |

I consider ALL of the Breda LRV's "new" even though they haven't all come in at the same time. I've seen up to number 724. I was on 715/716 last weekend. I can't remember the exact number, but something like 20 or so have been accepted and are in service. |

You seem to have missed my point entirely. The news that I am relaying is that cars will be testing on the gold line extension, not that new cars have been delivered. Running cars on the new line is the news, not that I've seen lots of new cars. Got it?As far as where the cars are stored, none of them are in the blue line yard. I have no idea about the greenline yard. When I went past last weekend, IINM 5 or 6 were stored just outside the gold line yard, 4 were in service and there were several more (6?) inside the yard. |

At the very least bring in some sterner stuff! Did you see what happened to that coach back on Sept 12 (#185)? It fell apart like it was made of cardboard.-w- |

And I'm saying that they will be using Breda cars to test the new gold line East LA extension. I wasn't implying anything about recent deliveries other than to try and answer your question as best that I could, although that only seems to have confused things even more.You thought that when I said "new" that I meant that there was a recent delivery, but what I really meant by "new" was Breda LRV. |
