#114 is now on the Danbury Shuttle.

The 114 has been on since Tuesday after the 126 ended up crapping out immediately on 1838 and then the rest of the night with me with battery charger issues. Before that the 112 was swapped out because of traction motor issues earlier in the morning.

This set came off the Waterbury shuttle this morning after having a problem and had to go up to New Haven after Train #6925's run. P32AC-DM #205 with Maxi-Bomb set replaced it for the next run on #6918.
