[PRCo] PRC Truck Maintenance

[Fred Schneider]

Hamley knows nothing more than I do about truck maintenance.

Remember that PRC had A, B and C levels of maintenance with each  
possible item on a car that could wear out inserted in one of those  
categories.   Each level was mileage based.    Once was probably what  
anyone else would have done at a carbarn ... daily or weekly  
inspection level, brush out the controllers, replace control tips,  
brake shoes and the like. It went up from that.

When PRC had written off a series of cars and found they no longer  
needed them, then the order went out to retire them when the highest  
level of maintenance inspection came due.   But I'm sure that there  
was a lot at any level you could look at and ignore because it had no  
affect on car performance.
