There was a 2 car set in an accident at Cowan and the set was destroyed. This is
not the 3801 accident. I am not sure if it was a 2 car K set or an L set. (Yes I
am using the current numbering.)

I have been consulting with numerous drivers and all are in agreement that there
were 10 cars built and now only 8 cars left.

I will go and ask some one in fleet ops / management (or whatever they call
themselves this week) for the correct details.
