They are currently operated by Shore Line East and QIT-Fer et Titane. Because of their lack of automatic doors, the Shore Line East cars are prohibited from running into Grand Central Terminal. In addition, the undercarriage clearances preclude running at more than {{convert|25|mph|km/h}} in third rail territory as found south and west of Pelham. Hence, the CDOT does not use them in the Metro North Railroad equipment pool. The cab cars are numbered 1701–1719. They are limited to 90 MPH (140 km/h) while in service on most trains. HistoryMafersa built the coaches new for the Virginia Railway Express at $24.7 million, or $600,000–$700,000 per car.[1] VRE sold 33 of the coaches to the Connecticut Department of Transportation in 2004 for its Shore Line East service.[2] QIT-Fer et Titane, a Quebec mining company, purchased the remaining five cars in 2008.[3] Routes servedThese coaches are used by CTrail on their Shore Line East service. They are operated as far west at Stamford and as far East as New London. Kawasaki M8 Railcars are intended to be introduced on Shore Line East on services from Stamford or New Haven to Old Saybrook. The Mafersa Coaches will then be moved to the Hartford Line, except for some which will run services to New London.
