Well that reminds me of Skoda 14T trams (which is partially similiar to Toronto TTC Flexity Outlook) which got decommisioned in 2013 due to defective bogeys, which worn out quickly due to bad design. They were sent back to Skoda Transportation and Prague transport company gave Skoda transportation ultimatum to fix those trams ASAP. Luckilly, Skoda transportation listened to the Prague transport company and sincw 2017, Skoda transportation delivered "fixed" Skoda 14T trams called "Skoda 14T Electra" which includes improved interior design and fixed bogeys. Let's hope they'll get along and wouldn't fail for 2nd timeSFMUNI wrote: ↑19 Aug 2018, 14:02 Well, in reality, these trams have been a political football and a big issue with the TTC, The City of Toronto and Bombardier.

There have been many delays and other issues but the worst is 67 of the super delayed streetcars have welding defects and need to be sent back. At least Sjoerd's tram isn't welded improperly!
Two questions, Will the trams get side destination signs and Will they get run numbers? (On the front of the real LFLRV, there is a LED number displayed, the run number.)
