I know that the transit industry uses MDBF as an important indicator, but MDBF can be deceptive. It is affected by the amount of money spent on scheduled maintenance. With the Brightliners and the rest of the first generation stainless steel cars being retired, I would think that the TA has curtailed much of the scheduled maintenance on them, driving up the MDBF. Perhaps, cost per revenue mile or passenger mile would be better indicators. |
