[QUOTE]Originally posted by Vincent206: [QB] The Chambers Bay set was repaired and returned to service (and I believe it was one of the Series 8 sets). My guess is that the new equipment purchased with the FRA money will be traditional equipment, probably identical to what CA will be buying. Some of the Series 6 trainsets already have 20+ years of service and they are ready for replacement. The question is whether the new equipment will be able to meet the timetable speeds that the Talgos can achieve between Seattle and Portland. Also, it doesn't make sense to have 2 different types of trains on a corridor that only requires 5-7 trainsets. There are some big decisions ahead for the Cascades service. [/QB][/QUOTE]
