Metro's delays in restoring full service in this storm, to my knowledge, are not due to conditions of rail cars, but track conditions instead. 30 inches is a lot of snow, and expecting them to restore service as fast as they did in December when they had 2/3rds of the snow totals is unrealistic. Metro has said they had snow drifts of 3-6 feet on some outdoor tracks. The thing about snow drifts is that they re-appear once you clear the snow away, so long as there is snow to be blown around and the wind patterns are similar.
