Description
This funding is for the purchase of additional passenger rail cars for the South Shore Line service. With the new operation of the West Lake service 32 of the South Shore Line rehabilitated rail cars are to be transferred over to the West Lake service. The additional passenger cars purchased will restore the South Shore Line railcars with an acceptable level of passenger seating within the new rail cars to cover the loss of the 32 cars.
