What about the stanless steel bodied cars?
Also, what safety features do the new trains have that the old ones didn't? I though the new trains were less rigid, and were built like th F-units, without a mainframe. I kow they have end frames, but the bodies will buckle in the center during collisions if they lack a full length frame like the older cars.
It is hard to believe that they repaired one of the cars involved in the williamsburg wreck, and put it back to service, despite having a good portion of its front damaged, the body was good enough to be put back in service.
