Zero large capital projects are done by the MTA, this all on siemens and tutor perini.

Eh, lots of waste and grift within the MTA but in this incident specifically it doesn’t seem to be the case. Appears that Siemens is owning the incorrectly sized part order and meeting with the MTA daily, kinda just seems like one of those projects that has such a big scope and so much legacy equipment that has almost certainly been repaired and replaced at different intervals over the years that overruns are just part of the game.
