Busjack Posted October 4, 2014 Report Posted October 4, 2014 Hell, they need too with all those damn crappy lights... Is it possible that artics are getting rehabs too?? I had 4175 today and it had the new clever device in it. There was something in the budget (5 year capital plan, page 55) about it, but apparently only initial money this year. Quote
sw4400 Posted October 4, 2014 Report Posted October 4, 2014 Is it possible that artics are getting rehabs too?? I had 4175 today and it had the new clever device in it. Probably just the clever devices and perhaps the LED's. The contract on the rehabs for the D40LF's outsource the work to Cummins N Power and New Flyer Of America for the rehabs. To rehab a DE-model New Flyer of any size, you probably need to include a company that rebuilds Hybrid Powertrains(not that New Flyer doesn't do work on Hybrids, but they would have to outsource the outsourced work if they did it that way). That might be a big reason why the rehab work is for 1,030 New Flyers(just the D40LF's) as opposed to the 1,050 New Flyers(D40LF's and DE40LF's). Quote
garmon757 Posted October 4, 2014 Report Posted October 4, 2014 #1132 is rehabbed while on #49 right now. Quote
BusHunter Posted October 4, 2014 Author Report Posted October 4, 2014 #1177 which I was on don't have the updated clever device or the cut in the wheelwell so it's probably going back off the list. I took off #1689 too. Still trying to figure out the status of #1942. It's on #79 now. Quote

Or maybe it has more to do with what Andre had reported within the last few weeks that they ultimately decided the 800s and 900s would just be pulled as they fail though it's not clear if he meant any simple failure or a larger one that called for a repair beyond what could be done at garage level.

Busjack Posted October 4, 2014 Report Posted October 4, 2014 ... That might be a big reason why the rehab work is for 1,030 New Flyers(just the D40LF's) as opposed to the 1,050 New Flyers(D40LF's and DE40LF's). Strangely, the specs for the rehabs included the 800s and 4000s,* but a contract was not awarded on them. By stating that "at a time a given IFB is posted," apparently CTA developed one set of specifications for whenever they would be needed. The main rehab issue seems to be the engine, and a Cummins is a Cummins. Allison undoubtedly has agents, and, as you noted, New Flyer (and Nova, for that matter) know where to get the parts. ____________ *and even 6400s. Quote
