DUTCH is this true


and the Njt and septa stuff can't run into GCT or the LiRR m-7's due to different third rail

Why were they recalled?

None of the MBTA stuff run into GC becuse it's not dual mode and with the MBTA having a car shortage it self why would they send any equipment down and a brandnew Bi-Level car 901 that is still going threw testing.

Better have some better info to back up a whopper like this than just "I heard" or "I saw."

The only MBTA equipment anywhere near MN is the bi-levels coming out of the Kawasaki plant in Yonkers.

Locked until further notice (or unless overridden by the moderator of this board).
