To beat the dead and buried horse yet again. Not every busititution has to docwith equipment problems. Again.. Perhaps a crew wasnt available or there was no available trainset.

Except when the alert says "due to mechanical problems".............

Oh, see that changes things, thought he was speculating again. I dont commute on MN so i dont follow their alerts.

Nor do I, but it would be nice to at least make some effort to verify one's conjecture before shooting from the hip like that....

Point taken. I understand lirr. Not justifying my actions in anyway but he's done that before where he's just speculated.

I really don't think they will say that there would be busitution due to a lack of crew and if there was no avalible trainset, it may be because of mechanical issues.

In other news: the sky is still blue.

And FWIW 115 was what was on Waterbury last night. So yeah...he really does need to knock off the conjecture before this thread gets locked.

I've said this before in these status threads, but is it really necessary to have such a thread? I mean the BL20s are not new anymore, nor are the GP35s. At least we are still get delivery of M8s though. Is the information in these status threads really beneficial or useful to anyone?

If a BL20 brings a mini bomb carrying passengers into GCT that's one thing, but knowing that the 115 went from Brewster to Harmon overnight on a deadhead doesn't seem so thrilling.

Anybody seen 129 or 130 recently

Yeah. Just whoever has seen them isnt a member of this site.

If you have nothing nice to say, it's best to say nothing at all
