Re: MTA Metro-North RR seeking RFP for 252 new push-pull cars to replace 1980s-era Shoreliners

Its the height of the car coupled with the 85'length that would cause problems negotiating the switches. Also, the length plus height would restrict it from using any loop tracks. The MTA would frown on any equipment that wouldn't go around the loop. Kills a cretain amount of equipment flexibility.
