Isn't that the ultimate shit hitting the fan (of the car behind you) issue? Why not go direct, like the trains of yesteryear, "kindly don't flush while the train is in the station". I'm with Sully.

I believe they installed in front of the mufflers because of higher exhaust temps and better combustion.

Why in the world do you feel the need to install a complex, unnecessary and possibly ineffective system to an already complex potentially unreliable
40+ year old coach?
