I hope so. To my knowledge no. If not are there any people in the railfan community down there who could advocate for this? I would likely guess yes. I don't have a clue what WMATA is asking for them. Trucking one of them to a location within 50 miles of Washington would likely cost around $10,000. There are presently about a dozen that are at various security and rescue training facilities. John in the sand box of Maryland's eastern shore. |
