Apologies for some weird parts of this video, I lost files for the original edit of the video, so I kinda had to rush it and forgot a few things.

As someone who used to work for GO Transit, let me tell you, GO does in fact need all 979 of those coaches. If anything, they don't have enough 😅

wow so that means that even tho they have 1 mile trains they still need longer coaches

You don't understand Government of Ontario (GO) Transit. It is basically a regional railway, and currently in the process of converting to a frequet suburban railway with electrification and service every 15minutes or better coming soon. Their peak-period ridership before pandemic was insane, on busy lines like Lakeshore they would be running several packed like sardines 12-bilevel strong trains during the peak. Honestly, they need to switch to electric multiple units with electrification, but they have so many bilevels it might have to be locomotives (the coaches last forever).

I’ve always had an eternal fondness for these cars. And it goes much past them having such great horns on most railroads that operate them, as well as the roof-mounted bells with those beautiful dopplers, and how they seem to take on this super nice aesthetic look from absolutely any angle you look at them from. I took the full time and effort to count up that a precise total of 223 Non-CEM Cab Cars of the type were built from 1983 to 2014 for 14 different operators (and being leased to a 15th one), and 5 of those I know closely in person, those being my home railroad, UTA FrontRunner, as well as Rail Runner, Caltrain, ACE, and Tri-Rail.

Great video! I love riding these cars into work on the Metrolink. I wish they would order some CEM bombardiers. The rotems just are not the same.

Bi-level: "we want a high capacity low boarding double decker car that doesn't look like a prison train (looking at you gallery cars)" multi-level: "we want a bi-level but it needs to fit in Penn Station and needs to have level boarding" C3: "we want a bi-level but it needs to fit in Penn station, have level boarding, and can't look like NJT .... because reasons"

Trust me man, GO needs all those coaches especially on the lakeshore and kitchener lines because those trains get packed during the rush hour. Interesting fact, GO considered buying gallery coaches before testing them and realizing a design update was necessary prompting them to design these beauties. Great video!

Not directly coaches, but there were recently sold >1000 locomotives of one model in several variants sold to various european railroads, of which one variant became the Siemens Chargers for North america. Czech Tatra trams were built >10k during the cold war era...There are a few examples.
