Piccadilly Line - Emma Clarke Announcements
What would you want of the design of the 92TS? The far too powerfull
traction system. DTS. The famous motor bracket!! That was a badly designed bit of support structure , not a badly designed traction system. In fact , because the 92TS has motors on every bogie then in theory (and I think in fact tho I'm not sure) they could be less powerful and produce less wear on the running gear than a unit that has a smaller number of high power motors only in certain cars. Not to mention better traction because all wheels are motored. I'm sure Alstom had a good reason for using the old style power car - trailer car design (price?) instead of doing the same as the 92 stock, anyone know what it was? B2003 |
