MBTA F40PH-2C 1050 wrote:so how many are in service now? 16?There are 20 in service (900-919). 900-915 have electric doors, and are on the Old Colony lines (though sets may occasionally see service on other lines). 916-919 have manual doors, and are assigned to sets on non-Old Colony lines. It's likely they wander onto the Attleboro line from time-to-time. Even though the press release from the MBTA <i>implies</i> they are assigned to specific trains (such as #800, the first inbound from Providence), operational needs can put cars anywhere at any time.
have any 900's gone on the attleboro line yet?
