Hell, the R142 may not be the greatest thing that came out of bombardier, but uh, the other stuff Bombardier handles isn't exactly "junk". Perfect example, look across the river and see what NJT is rockin with, ALP-46s! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect example, look across the river and see what NJT is rockin with, ALP-46s! Wow one locomotive, but most of their railcars they build are crap. The HHP8's are the worst locomotives amtrak has.

Which were made by bombardier. Thats because the HHP8s are Amtrak. That train was a spectable devil. So, lets go a little further, how about across the pond, look at the Bombardier trains running in Europe. Those trains are built great, running good, design is great. Lets come back to the US, take a look at MNRR's Shoreliners and how good they're doing. Also, NJT's MLVs, those are running great also, NJT not having serious problems with them. Hell, NJT just ordered more and are planning to get dual mode locomotives from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even worth disscussing, nearly wore my hand out form writing on that car defect sheet so much at 241 st about that one particular Operating Motor..
