It leaves me to wonder if any of the Norwood line workers or managers recall the option and how well it seemed to work, or for that matter, didn't work well in solid lifter cars when tested?

I ask due to it being Vacuum actuated and wonder how effectively it performed in these solid lifter cars when installed new, and how it was tested before leaving Norwood. Hearing anything at all from plant workers on this option would be kind of cool to me?

Thanks and enjoy the Party!
They were aware of the option, but nothing remarkable to report on LTC from the workers as it was not something that was tested on the line.
