Suggestions
editThe page could use a "current status" section to summarize the latest info about the project progress and running estimate of project completion, versus original projections.
For example, summaries about what parts of the electrification are on or behind schedule, whether the cars being built are on schedule, and the ultimate final date for revenue service, whether on or behind schedule. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Supernova87a (talk • contribs) 23:53, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
Length
edit@Mliu92: I think the 2021 brochure is in error about the length of a 7-car set. The older brochure indicated a car length around 85 feet, which is standard for US passenger equipment; it seems extremely unlikely that they would have switched to a much shorter car.

- Thanks - agreed. It also copies the truck configuration, power output, and tractive effort verbatim from the 6-car brochure, despite the addition of (apparently) another passenger trailer with two powered trucks, so I think they didn't check it very thoroughly before posting it. I'll update the article and revert the title back to a six-car consist. Cheers, Mliu92 (talk) 00:22, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
