One possibility (and I'm only speculating here): Recall how light-eight trucks and other aerospace-originated designs did not work well in the NYC subway.Is it possible that Washington Metrorail's railcar design went the "light weight" route inherently, and that WMATA underestimated the punishment the railcars would have to take over their lifetimes? I could be wrong. It's just a wild guess. |
