Thats high considering they only have 1 set prepared in case 1 goes out of service, if 3 sets are being maintained in the barn theres 2 sets active for service if necessary. There's currently 222 R32s I believe maintained at 207 Street, but they get a very low MDBF, replace them with HTT and proper maintenance and you won't need many spare sets as the line will be running at its max efficiency. Nothing better than a car that can go nearly 500000 miles before failure than a car than can barely get 1/5th |
