RTA is turning on the 600VDC power for the St. Charles Line this week. The repairs to the overhead wiring on St. Charles from Lee Circle to Napoleon Avenue are complete, and now they've flipped the "on" switch. They'll test the wiring and make sure all is well, and soon we'll see the 900s extending their run form Lee Circle all tye way to Napoleon.
For the time being, the 900s will continue to be based out of the Canal barn, since the repairs all the way to Willow/Jeanette Streets aren't yet complete.
Earl's on the lookout for test runs. Anybody want to start a pool on which car will be first? It's usually 930.
