Posted by Joe V on Mon Mar 26 17:17:59 2012, in response to Re: Little more info on the R-179 Bombardier contract, posted by R32_3671 on Mon Mar 26 14:14:10 2012. R32 sharp margin is about 35% (18 * 8/ 222). They put out about 4 or 5 R42's a day, so 20 - 40% with them,. That will go to 10% with the R179, so only 250 cars replace 272 R32/R42. There are 50 cars for either some SIR/R44SI replacement or Q train extension to 96th/2nd.TA has over-scrapped many times before (R30GOH, R32's) and they'll do it again. Worst comes to worst, if they are short 50 cars, the can cherry-pick 50 R32's for the Z until the R211. |
