We had a mechanical foreman in Oakland that believed having us wye the whole trainset, helped to promoted even wheel wear. This was the California Cars and F59s at the time which they'd make us take around the wye.
The bad thing about tsw peninsula corridor is the Cab Cars and The F40s have inaccurate horns like cab car 119 and 120 don’t have the original horn I wish they did have their og horns

Does an engine prefer to run in both directions? Does it save on brush and allow the armature to wear evenly?
no, it's for convenience for the operators
