Andy:
1-These multilevel MU cars should be able to serve BOTH high and low level platforms in electrified territory.
They are supposedly identical to the previous multilevel coaches...
2-The former EL electrified routes DO have SOME high-level platforms - NEWARK BROAD STREET, SUMMIT and
DOVER are examples of prime M&E stations so equipped by NJT...MACTRAXX

Then what happens? Off to Pueblo for the test track or delivery to NJT for in-service test runs?

The trailers can presumably go straight to NJT but the powered units I would expect to be going to Pueblo for crash testing, no?

Testing at Pueblo is required by FRA or some other regulatory agency?

Crash testing would be required by the FRA, yes.
