Ill assure all of you, that ALL of the Siemens locomotives have the same issues, regardless of who owns them or who maintains them. They all pretty much have the same stuff, save the Cali units probably not having cab signals and only having I-ETMS. They seem to be OK in short haul, commuter service but long hauls arent doing so hot. They def do NOT work well in cold weather. The main cause of that is the dynamic brake grid which is also the resistor grid for the DC LINK needing to heat up occasionally to melt off snow. This can become such a problem to the point where it cuts traction power and HEP to the train because it needs so much power from the DC LINK that it cannot maintain its voltage, so no traction output. You know, EMD had louvers in the radiators for this. Why is it old tech is lost in new inventions? Cali will not see these problems not will florida.
The rest of the problems with the software will vary by user, however, the poor hardware (network components, door seals, doors, seats etc) are all the same still and will experience the same failures in time.
No good deed goes unpunished.
