Posted by Train Dude on Tue Jun 9 20:55:56 2009, in response to R-32s being sold to Nigeria, posted by UTC Bus Roster on Tue Jun 9 18:20:47 2009. Almost true - almost. First, the number of cars involved will likely be less than 200. Second, the cars will not be sold but will be given to the Nigerian Transport Ministry. Third, for the deal to be done, The cars will have to be fitted with new trucks and be re-equipped to be pulled behind the diesel locos that GE is selling to the Nigerian Gov't. The hook is that all the modifications must be made in NY State before the cars are shipped. So it's not a done deal yet. |
