Reporter an emotional Vallejo Police spokesman even said so on live tv. Mr. Quinn and miss huskins have plundered valuable resources away from our community.

They are running test trains with a new hightech tool installed that may help identify the source of the electrical spikes thats damaged passenger cars. The spike is occurring so quick, 100th of a millisecond, and the instruments we had before werent picking it up to the level we needed so were hoping this new tool will help solve the problem. Reporter the hightech tool was installed last night on a test train and running that train along the troubled area of track to detect whats causing the electrical surge. We did try to add a second train to the loop and then experienced some propulsion problems with that train clearly showing it was overloading the system the draw was too much to have two trains so its giving us a little glimpse into what it can and cant handle. Reporter in all, more than 100 cars are out of service. And even if they find a fix, it could take months before its back up and running 100 .
