NYCT could for once give something that didn't work a second shot after giving industry an opportunity to improve on the technology rather than automatically adopting a simpler solution which impairs their operation. NYCT has discarded so many technologies which went on to be improved and adapted by other systems because they simply didn't work the first time they used them. The optical rail imaging system used on the R143 could be adapted for use on museum equipment that has all wheels powered, and they may find that with some work it could be superior to the unbraked idler axle they've gone with on current orders. |
