Give him his full four years. He hasn't even completed his 'first 100 days' yet. There is a lot to fix and/or stop.

>I thought Trump was going to stop shit like this
HAHAHAHAHAHA
>Trump stopping anything
HAHAHAHAHA ... When will you retards learn your lesson??!!?!!!
Thomas Moore
Any updates? The "prototype" one my country bought a few years ago still is missing its engine and is currently "hidden" on the depot I work in.
Chinese trains are cheap and at best average performing. It's the spare parts pricing they start being greedy jews
Hunter Walker
I hate living in this hell hole.
Luke Reed
Good. Being Chinese and all, it will derail, killing lots of niggers in its wake

Asher Martinez
ITT faggots that still ignore the free market because muh buy american
China stuff are cheap in bulk, very easy to tweak, low to average quality Now, what/ who is in Chicago? Why the fuck would you build an expensive, state-of-the-art, beautiful, graffiti canvass
Chase Stewart
Fuck off, Mike. No one likes you.
Also, stop funding our muslim terrorists you satay asshole
Joseph Hernandez
But, who should have CTA bought the trains from?
There are no U.S. metro rail vehicle manufacturer left.
New York has ordered theirs from Kawasaki of Japan, Atlanta and Los Angeles from AnsaldoBreda of Italy, Boston from Siemens of Germany.
Ayden Butler
At least they are building a plant here which will employ people.
Brayden Robinson
WHAT THE FUCK
THEY JUST REPLACED THE ENTIRE CAR FLEET THREE YEARS AGO AND THEY TOOK OUT THE PERPENDICULAR SEATS FOR THE SHITTY NY-STYLE PARALLEL MANSPREADER-BAIT

Best post in this thread so far.
Jose Thomas
It's Chicago, they are doing it to spite him more than likely. Chicago is home to the lowest functioning Democrats.
Dominic Lee
>CSR Sifang, as part of the deal, will build a new plant near Chicago and do final assembly and testing there. This is what Trump wants you fucking idiot. Jobs and investment in the USA.
You fucking Trump fags are so unbelievably fucking stupid, it's unreal.
Thomas Powell
I know that government employees are no longer allowed to use government funds to purchase apple devices. Overheard some butthurt lib fanboys whining about it.
James Wood
AnsaldoBreda doesn't exist any more. It is Hitachi Italy now.
Camden Rivera
WHY DON'T YOU BUY EUROPEAN YOU FUCKING BURGER TRAITORS REEEEEE

Perpendicular seats lower train capacity by reducing standing room.
Packed subway systems like Tokyo has never had perpendicular seats.
Matthew Ramirez
Pretty shitty deal imo. Last time they did this CTA engineers did an inspection on the cars and found that the welding and other parts to train were not built to specifications. CTA gonna really fuck themselves on this deal but hey who cares its tax payers that gonna flip the bill.
Christian Flores
The ideal scenario would be an american company, but since we cannot into mass transit like the rest of the modern world, winning bids go to overseas companies.
Connor Moore
"Lowest bid always wins" rules really are fucking up the American infrastructure projects and to some extent Canadian projects.
Cities should be able to award contracts based on proven ability to deliver without defect on time, not just upfront cost estimates.
Landon Cooper
>meanwhile a private company in Florida built it's train in California
>Chifag >CTA trains are going to look like cuckmobiles RREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Cooper Turner
Exactly. They never had them in the first place.
When the CTA still did perpendicular seats people were genuinely better on it. The new forced-huddle has made everyone shittier with a permanent stinkeye. Now, we're all forced to stay within 3ft of the piss-soaked crackhead wailing tina turner begging for gibs.
Japan's engineering is beautiful, sure. Unfortunately they forget they're fucking transporting people, not freight.
Charles Anderson
because rahm the mayor of chicago and ex obama best bro is close with the chinks
the dude "rezoned" the plot of land this skyscraper is on to abuse the h1b program for that sweet chink money. Basically its taking the land the building is built on and then classifying that and a 100ft wide strip running several miles due west to one of the poorest neighborhoods in chicago so it can be claimed that this is being built in a low employment area, and is thus economic stimulus. Yet it is in lakeshore east, one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in chicago.

Fucking where? Did I miss something in the Wrigley renovations in October? The hotel & promenade are gonna be short stacks.
Aiden Howard

Nolan Hill

Christopher Green
Yeah, Chinese arn't known for high quality
David Evans
Chicago is one of the most corrupt cities in the US. Here we having the strictest gun laws and most gun violence. We pay the highest taxes and cant even pay pensions and balance budgets. We claim to be the most diverse cities but we have the most segregated neighborhoods.
Xavier Taylor
Says the country that invented railway, but neglected the industry so much, there is not a single rail car builder left and have to buy them all from France and Japan.
Jason Johnson
So much for daddy drumpft bringing back your jobs to America :^)

Looks like the one they've in australia, countrylink xpt.
