I personally think the 14T is a better styled train. I guess it was designed by Porsche industrial design. I like it better, but thats just me. My main issue is this copycat notion transit operators in the US seem to have about equipment, like there for awhile where it seems every single freakin LRV in North America was a Siemens SD series, quite possible the most banally designed rolling stock of all time. I think the Skoda 10T is a great streetcar, I just think maybe D.C. deserves something a bit more unique, a bit more 'wow, that's modern' inspiring.
