I wonder if CTA had their own inspectors in the BBD plant?

You have to have your own inspectors in the contractor's plant to make sure that the work is done properly.

The Chicago "L" cars that Boeing built in the 1970's were OK because CTA had their own inspectors in the Boeing plant. MBTA and Muni did not and the Boeing LRV's they bought had major problems.

I know MTA had their own inspectors in the Orion bus plant in Oriskany, NY and the Nova bus plant in Roswell, NM in the 1990's.

I hope they do the same in subway car contractors' plants.
