Since 488 has had a couple of small problems they are apparently raiding the 494 and 495 for some replacement parts. My question: will the shops acquire and stockpile some replacement parts as, I suppose problems like this could crop up again. Will some money that has come in from New Mexico or from grants be used for this purpose. I would think it would be wise to have parts that go bad most often stockpiled.
