Re: R Train May Run 8 Cars Instead of 10...Re: Is There an Update on the R160's Wheel Wear Problem?

When the car is weighted with weight stacks, the weight used is to simulate a fully loaded car, IIRC 270 people or 270 X 150 Lbs. Therefore the car would be operating within the actual design parameters. What you seem to be suggesting is that the car might be randomly over-weighted or improperly h designed. The former is not done but perhaps the 2nd is possible but unlikely
