a lot of 5600's are un-overhauled. WHY?

Yeah, today I saw an out of service New Flyer on Wadsworth Ave, and when it took off, it let out a puff of black smoke.

3482 on the 75 today,(2102 block) The operator had to turn it in after two trips, lousy
acceleration, and would not go more than 5 mph up hills. The rest of his run he had 3418, which ran good.

I guess we have a good running Neo , that 3418. With the suspected problem with the new trackless coming in ( the poles lower when they detect frost on the wires), we better keep those Neo's a bit longer.

The frost problem sidelined the whole fleet up in Vancouver , B.C.
SEPTA is buying the same model trackless.
