      @@LuffyRL You people complain too much. SF is not particularly dirty compared to any normal city. All cities have grimy parts. Paris is filthy all over. Cities in China have a nice tourist section and the rest is just pure distilled grime.

    The Breda cars these Siemens units replace should have lasted 40 years. The fact they barely made it 20 years is a testament into how the Muni Board is run.
    How will the SF taxpayer be credited for the abysmal depreciation schedule and damage the Breda units caused? We were sold a stale bag of goods.

    • @TransitAndTeslas
      @TransitAndTeslas 3 роки тому +1

      Those Breda cars were the biggest pile of shit ever. The doors even fell off the tracks.
      Now Muni even wasted more money upgrading those with the new CAD/AVL only to scrap them.

    The number of seats is abysmal relative to the length of the car, almost makes the IER cars of 1911 look plush! And they weren't plush.

      SFMTA is trying really hard to convince riders that this is a "metro". Hence the metro/ subway styled longitudal seat layout.

      @@transitvideosbayarea It is a Metro! They’ve been steadily doing upgrades to make it a metro for decades now. Even with the current setup it’s mostly a metro even though it has sections where it’s still more streetcar. But those are all scheduled to be upgraded eventually. And with the new Central Subway opening it will be a lot harder to argue that this is not a metro.
