Lets not forget that Metro-North's overall long range plan is to have the M-8's compatible with all of their third rail turf. As in go to Harmon Or Southeast in a pinch in times where equiptment is short. Like as it is done nowadays when u see the big red stripe on the side heading north on 3'd rail territiory twoards Harmon or Brewster North (sorry, Southeast) Also, Metro Morth spent big $$$'s on their highbridge car maintenance facility to service all their equiptment. So, since there is no wire in the highbridge area, the M-8's will need compatible 3'd rail shoe to get their occcasional South Bronx bath.So any thoughts that the M-8's only need pantographs in a mistake. |
