Motor rewinding area
Stator housing for the generator on an Orion Hybrid bus, after being rewound
A rotor for a motor is on a lathe having the commutator turned to expose new material.
Business end of a new CNC turning centre.
The teams are learning how to maintain the pantographs which the LFLRV's are equipped with. Once a particular line is completely converted over to LFLRV's (from CLRV/ALRV's), they can rework all the overhead contact system to accommodate the pantographs, and then the temporary-use trolley poles on the trains can be removed.
