Reply to "Metra converting to battery power"

$34.6 million to convert only 6 locomotives over 3 & 1/2 years isn’t exactly cheap, either.

Still a WHOLE LOT cheaper than the hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars required to install 12,500 or 25,000 volt AC overhead catenary, including all the modifications to the signal systems and necessary filtering circuitry required to prevent electrical noise interference to the surrounding communities.
