It has to go to CI for installation of gates and programing 2. then it goes from CI to Pitkin fir training and non revenue burn in 3. once it is deemed ready, the cars will enter service. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember: cars must be redeemed “Safe to operate” by said yard before it can be placed in revenue service. So far, 13 R211As and 2 R211T sets (130/20) are in service.
