On the plus sides, when I was traveling south by Heritage it looks like a new car was just delivered. Baby steps.

That one is actually an SD160 (middle generation model LRV, Calgary first started getting them in 2001). They are being sent down a few at a time to Sacramento for a midlife refurbishment.
There are still some more of the newest model (S200) to come in. 43 of 69 have been delivered.
To totally retire all of the original U2 cars would require another 55 or so new cars on top of the current order.
