Then how did they change the IDENTity of the train?

There was a 3 position switch at the base of the loop. There was no connection with the rest of the train. The loop was removeable because only the front and rear cars had loops. The IDENTRA system was first adopted to the R12/14/15's. The R33/36 fleet came with the bracket already on the cars. They reused the same loops.

If the wire that you showed is simply a remote actuator of the switch, I must still ask the same questions.

BTW, what maintenance did your SEPTA maintainer perform on the IDENTRA loop?
