Posted by Henry R32 #3730 on Tue Jul 12 19:42:28 2016, in response to Re: Silverliner V problems, posted by TransitChuckG on Tue Jul 12 11:58:50 2016. Article appears to have been updated, the cost is only 1/3rd the original quote:Per week, SEPTA is leasing five coaches from the Maryland Area Regional Commuter train service for $19,462 per week; one locomotive and eight coaches from NJ Transit for $15,570 per week; and two locomotives and five coaches from Amtrak for $16,375 per week. That Marc set is pretty expensive. If you value a locomotive as equivalent to 3 cars, NJT and Amtrak are comparable, maybe NJT is slightly cheaper. If NJT wants to make some money on the deal, they could shorten five comet sets from the Hoboken division and lease a second train at the MARC rate... |
