I know the Comet III cabs do not meet current crash safety standards and are due to be converted into trailers only. Besides, there's nothing wrong with the Comet III's as they are. The Comet II's needed a rebuild to be compatible with newer models. The Comet III's can run as they are now until they are retired, which I'd say is a good 10-15 years off. If they don't want them, sell them to the MTA. They're basically Shoreliner III's, but with reversible seats. |
