Posted by tracksionmotor on Tue Nov 28 00:09:15 2006, in response to Re: Wheel Axels, posted by Train Dude on Sun Nov 26 21:25:59 2006. Next FRA inspection I do....'double take.' Wheels are clearly marked '239' in paint. FRA undercar inspection requires complete cleaning of important identification markers and safety signage...the OEM labels applied to axles are often damaged and obliterated. MNCR ran an PI on my first PI and came up with a list...it was all post-road damage. One trainset had PCE failures attributed to my inspections in error...the contactor arc chutes dropped pieces into the horizontal contactors preventing total contact indicated by the microswitch....vendor problem. These are not R68s where you can tear everything down for proper inspection and maintainance. RRCI Peter |
