This approach may be the answer to their notorius crumpleability. Putting an engine on the end isn't going to cut it either (see: Metrolink 185), so a bulbous nose may have to do. I can't see a hit to this kind of end extending back into the seating area, unless you are talking about a violent impact at 50+mph (in that case, all bets are off for any kind of rail vehicle).A step in the right direction. wayne |
