Why would passenger train cars be attached to a freight train?
Is this common?:I’ve seen these passenger cars hooked up to a freight train outside my town. They’re double decker trains that look just like Metra trains but don’t say Metra on the side. The odd thing is there are no train stations in town and I’ve never seen a passenger train on these tracks. Are Metra trains shipped somewhere to be repaired or are they repaired at by mechanics at the station? Because that’s the only reason I can think of for them to be connected.
We ship them all the time for delivery to the transit company.They are added to our freight trains just like a regular freight car.
