At least they know how to run railway rolling stock building business. There
were some critisim how Daimler Chrysler can't really handle railway business
very well and some of the Daimler Chrysler managers don't understand railway
at all.(I read this off "Erik rail news several months ago, but can't find
it now)  Also Bombardier mostly involve with carriages/wagons(ie Superliner
etc) business and Adtranz make multi units(diesel or electric) locos (D or
E). Together they cover just about every type of railway rolling stocks.
