Operating Fleet
Currently, the Blue Line is operated with Budd-built 2200-series and 2600-series rail cars. These cars are typically trained together because the older 2200-series cars have "blinker doors" that open inward and are not ADA compliant. They are scheduled for retirement in December 2012 or 2013.

Famous quotes containing the words operating and/or fleet:
“Many people operate under the assumption that since parenting is a natural adult function, we should instinctively know how to do it—and do it well. The truth is, effective parenting requires study and practice like any other skilled profession. Who would even consider turning an untrained surgeon loose in an operating room? Yet we “operate” on our children every day.”
—Louise Hart (20th century)
“Believe me, if all those endearing young charms,
Which I gaze on so fondly today,
Were to change by tomorrow, and fleet in my arms,
Like fairy-gifts fading away.”
—Thomas Moore (1779–1852)
