TRANSIT VEHICLE MAINTENANCE PROBLEMS--CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS. BART

Vehicle Maintenance Problems can be divided into two categories; scheduled maintenance and unscheduled maintenance. Scheduled maintenance involves for the most part problems of getting the maximum preventative maintenance for minimum manhours. The second, unscheduled maintenance, mainly involves problems of finding the trouble areas, isolating them, developing patterns, and recommending design changes.
