Confusion[edit]

It needs to be made clear that the "SLRV" designation applies to the LRVs only following the addition of the low-floor section. The LRVs before the conversion had no original designation until the SLRV conversion contract was signed. This article should, therefore, focus on the LRVs as a whole, encompassing the entirety of its existence, including both pre and post-conversion. Right now it is biased towards the post-conversion design, but we cannot neglect that before that they were the first ever modern LRVs in North America. <<< SOME GADGET GEEK >>> (talk) 18:59, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The "first-ever modern LRVs in North America"? How do you get that? They weren't even the first low-floor LRVs (of the modern era) in North America; that notable distinction went to Portland's Siemens SD660s in 1996 (first entering service in 1997). And if you did not mean low-floor, then the first LRVs in North America were built almost two decades before Dallas's first LRVs: the first Boeing LRVs, in the mid-1970s.
