Posted by blue streak 1 on Friday, February 1, 2013 5:48 PM

From newswire possible cancellation of on order commuter cars.

In just a few minutes will post notice that Ukraine is also having problems.  The country wants to discontinue getting any more EMUs from Hyundai.

Jeez, I drive a Hyundai.  No problems with it.  What are they doing wrong with railcars?

Remembering an old "Saturday Night Live" routine, Lady Firestorm and I call it the "Hy-yun-dye-yay."
