BART officials estimate repairs for a car derailed at Fremont last year would total about 367000, nearly equal to buying a new Rohr Industries car for 400000. Maintenance chief Ed Gregerman favors replacement, noting salvage value and post crash problems. He also seeks recovery from Westinghouse and Bulova for faulty automated control gear.
