I can understand putting these cars to further use, but has anyone inquired as to whether these cars can take anymore use? For the past couple of years many have talked about all sorts of reasons why the SMEEs (R-32s in particular) need to retire. It's beyond just the mechanics which won't be an issue since they'll supposedly become push-pulls, but I've heard people claim there are issues with the physical car bodies such as metal-fatigue. If this were to be true, are they safe to spend X amount of years on another railway even in a coach capacity? Or is the Nigerian Transit Ministry simply not concerned? |
