So basically those older 1000 series rail cars weren’t safe nor crash worthy, thus making them telescope over the rail cars and the structure would just completely come apart less like the newer rail cars wouldn’t.
@@theautistictransitfan Which was nothing more then theater, as the 4000 series were structurally identical to the 1000 series with only difference being they were 10 years newer.
These trains were incredibly lightweight, and did not have very solid frames, and the crashes at Woodley Park and between Takoma and Fort Totten led to a ban on 1000 series cars being placed at the front ends of a train
Time for both DC & NYC to build a maglev high speed rail system, and replace Amtrak with a maglev high speed rail system up to 500 miles an hour on the entire Northeast corridor (DC to Boston).

It would have been a meme when the 2000/3000/6000 series on the DC Metro sounds like the shortform of the R160As from the NY Subway
It's all fun and games till a MTA train is on DC tracks 💀💀

Yeah, they banned them from leading trains after the 2009 crash

I Guess Trains Can Be Like The Titanic, Being Under Millions Water
my question is how do these trains keep telescoping? that was a thing back when coaches were made of wood, these are made of metal
