For your general information, PATransit had none of the 'double' contactors when I was working at SHJct. Also, as I mentioned previously, the 'derail' was removed when I began operating at SHJct.

Does PTM have the same overhead contactors? Forgive the novice questions but I'm really trying to understand this. This is one reason I will be paying close attention to whoever the operator is during our visit in November. I wonder if there is a way to purchase an operator's handbook.
