Nothing like watching the T spend millions to rip out and replace what is in effect a wide-area charging system, to spend millions more on a still not quite ready for prime time battery system which introduces significant limitations on the fleet (like needing to return to the garage to charge every 4-6 hours).
Wondering if I'll see the Western Route double-tracking finished before I retire...
