Passenger Trains > Amfleet cars on #30Date: 03/23/12 09:48 Amfleet cars on #30 Author: gmo1111 Over the last few days as seen on the Sand Patch camera, #30 has been carrying some Amfleet cars at the head end. Does anyone know if these are just normal maintenance moves or rebuilds from Beech Grove?

Date: 03/23/12 12:08 Re: Amfleet cars on #30 Author: amanwtf The Amfleet cars you're seeing on #30 are cars being cycled back to Bear Delaware for their annual inspections and tear downs. All operating equipment have dates which must be adhered to. Beech Grove and Chicago are not set up for this work on these cars.
