But all Bill said at the beginning is that the M/V combo STILL provided for an overall car surplus allowing the R44's to be retired. That has not changed. The V's R46's became surplus after the M/V routes were combined, providing an overall increase in B division equipment. Those extra R46's allowed, when transferred to Pitkin, the R44's to be retired.The R42's are around longer than they were expecting, and the R44's retired sooner than them, but there still is an overall surplus that allowed the R44's to be retired, which would not have been allowed to be done if not for the M/V combo. The M may have 6 extra trainsets, but the V had a lot more train sets than that that were transferred to Pitkin. |
