I won't believe this till it happens, which I don't expect.

There would be a net increase of car requirements since the A and C would both be 600'. They have a hard time making service as it is.

It makes dispatching at 207 problematic in case trains come n/b out of place. They're not going to ABD a train in case only an R32 is available to Far Rock! Signs have to be changed too. You don't have a bunch of WAA people all the time.

How can you relay on time at Euclid with only 1 switchman with an R46? And if he isn't there that day the crew office doesn't cover the job? With R46's on the C, it will take longer to do the relay. At 168 the swm can use the benchwall. You don't have that at Euclid.

I'm still waiting for R68's on the G, which was rumored to happen well before 6/26. Didn't happen.

I'm with you wanting this pick to end. As of today, 12 more weeks left in this pick. I'm not saying where I am or what I do, but I am associated with the line this pick.

I'm counting them down too.
