Trains are going around the work area outbound on the inbound and then back outbound on the outbound There can't be any better location then the outbound track at Vic Park for that to happen!

That's an assumption. The reason for 40 foot buses instead of 60 foot buses is still unknown and speculatjon is unconfirmed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRT Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 It's a ramp car. I took a look at the damage car 47, it's definitely going to need a new coupler, right lower quarter repair to the cab and a section below the door that I could see it's mostly cosmetic. Depending on the overall condition of that car which looks decent and it being a ramp car it'll probably be repaired but that's just my guess. The damage on the Audi will probably be able to be buffed out 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
