There are 14 FOUR car sets north, we are down a lot of cars.

417/419 have trainmen that finish at the Station. Other trains go west to do a full crew swap that do no put away.

I was on 419 yesterday and we had 2 passengers. One came from South Acton and told me she connects to a bus there.

The new layover will not open this coming week. East Fitchburg facility has a new lease on life for the time being. This should not have an effect on the service.

Bus outage was planned and there was expected delays.

Both tracks over the bridge are in service as of this weekend. It is unknown when the number 1 side will be removed from service.

1027 has been playing cab car for probably a month now. If I recall correctly, there is actually a cab car right behind it, too. Or at some point there was. I wonder what is wrong with the cab car. The 1027 was on a set initially without a control car. Then it was added to a different set where the...

Very well put! As a Conductor your remarks are dead on target.

I wonder if they have set up some sort of repair or maintenance shop inside the car house. Since the car house still has all its rails and pits in place still.

Gallery cars do not have tall end doors! They are standard single level cars with a second level added inside. The Gallery cars for years operated with single level cars in Chicago.

Not true at all. No cab signals tests are performed North at anytime.

The entire sets wheels will have to be inspected.

Are you saying th North Side steals a set? We never run sets from the South Side north. And the North Side ones can't make a visit South due to the lack of cab signal testing requirements.

First Rotems to operate was on the North Side as a 4 car set. It was 180x-800-801-9xx. 802 was scrubbed due to a yard accident. To my knowledge a full Rotem set has never operated in revenue service.

Both sides were replaced. Andover station has been out of service for some time now. Wondering if it is waiting replacement as well.
