<p>The minutes of the December 8th, 2017 Board meeting were published:<br /><a href="http://metrolink.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=3&clip_id=413">http://metrolink.granicus.com/AgendaViewer.php?view_id=3&clip_id=413</a></p> <p>No word about the reasons of #907's breakdown at its November 18th, 2017 unveiling at Newhall Station.</p> <p>Regarding the reported urea problems there is the following information. The primary failure mode was a failure to transport the urea to the day tank.<br /><br />Quote page 370: <em>Two failure modes were observed: failure of "gating solenoids" to open - restricting urea flow from storage tank & "loss of prime" preventing transfer pump from pumping urea fluid from storage tank up to day tank.</em></p> <p>And analogous: Since a second modification addressing these failures the units have each run about 700 miles each without additional failures. Staff expects to remove the stop order if recent reliability gains continue.<br />Regards, Volker</p>
