Posted by Avid Reader on Sat Aug 23 10:40:04 2014, in response to Re: FYI, R-211 order... it is a 75 foot car order. No more 60 foot car orders, for now., posted by Joe V on Sat Aug 23 08:22:15 2014. 60 foot cars in 5 cars sets cannot operate anywhere, or one of the middle cars has to get cut out and made uselessHow so, they can fit on any 8 car platform and the CR can use the rear cab to operate from. Now if they ran some 9 car L trains I can see a 5 car set and a 4 car set joined to make your 9 car set, but for purpose's of conformity, the sets of all 9 cars would have to have the 5's all on the north or south to line up with the platform markers. 6 car G trains Would you accomplish this by dividing 4 car sets in half, to be coupled to other 4 car sets, or order A+A sets? Myself, I would have gone with R-110B type 67 ft. cars with all of the bells and whistles, in the 3 car, 2 car, and single car setups, for diversity. |
