Re: F40PH-3C overhaul program

Do wonder why the MP36s didn't work out for the T outside maintenance challenges considering Metra has slightly older engines and I assume they are still running or GO Transit's MP40s which, honestly I'm surprised the T didn't consider ordering a few of those. Maybe I am missing something.

Has anymore of these SD70s been delivered to METRA recently? Last one one I heard coming was 512.

Has there been any news or updates when the 1900s will return back into service like the OL cars have?

Where are Ex Go Transit F59s currently running these days or are they out of service for the moment?

Has there been a hold up of cars hitting MBTA property it seems like no pairs have arrived since 1412/13 came in last year?

I have noticed that too the 3900s entering service seems pretty slow compared to previous Type 7 and Type deliveries. My guess is with the Type 7 and 7.5 rebuilds completed they may not feel desperate to push the cars in service.

More than likely 1032 was probably the engine that they worked the bugs out of compared to 1050 and 1054.

How bad are the car bodies of 3711/3719 or is the T isn't trying to dump more money into the rebuild program?

Thanks for the response, I was watching the video feeds and I see the train collide with the truck and I believe the car after the SD40-2 might have been a flatbed which derailed, but could the engines also cause the massive cloud of smoke that the fire department couldn't put out or did they some h...
