Hey, new member here. I ride Metro-North's Hudson and Harlem Lines daily, and have an interest in their equipment. This is obviously the right place to be to learn more.
In the past couple of weeks, I've noticed that the M7's have been having door issues. After boarding is completed, the doors begin to close, but don't seal all the way. So they've been reopening the doors, closing them again. And, in many cases, STILL don't seal, until they keep on repeating the process over and over.
Also, all of a sudden, none of the M7's have automated announcements. Now, don't get me wrong, they're VERY annoying. Three times? Come on, do we not understand English?
And lastly, on a few of the different cars I've been on, the PA speakers are already blown!
Are these just normal bugs expected for new trains, or is this a sign of things to come?
Thanks!
