The government got lucky, I'd say. designing for lowest total cost of
ownership is something that government projects usually completely miss, with
their emphasis on lowest initial cost.
Has anyone used the concrete forming plant/prefab section marshalling yard
that was built subsequent to the initial use? Reading between the lines I got
the impression that some reuse of that was used in the costing assumptions.
