Gross has told journalists that Sarapatka, replaced by former Defense Minister Miroslav Kostelka, was fired as part of a government office restructuring.

 Factors influencing the decision to adopt multiple unit franchising arrangements
Multiple unit franchising appears a conceptually unsound alternative to traditional dyadic revenue sharing franchising relationships as it does not benefit from the structural and operational synergies commensurate with ownership attention at the unit level.
Multiple unit franchising refers to an organisational arrangement in which franchisees are permitted to own more than one unit in the same franchise system.
The model describes multiple unit franchising as a function of the context of franchise system context (age, system corporatisation, plurality of distribution, geographic dispersion of available units and level of existing intra-firm conflict), and strategic (ownership redirection, perceived future agency cost minimisation, and system rewards) factors.

 Railway Age: A potent combination: tests conducted by Genessee & Wyoming show that a mother/slug locomotive set can be a cost-effective alternative to a conventional two-unit consist
The slug has to be bal-lasted to compensate for the weight loss resulting from removal of its engine and components until its gross weight is brought back to near its original as-built weight.
Because only the mother unit is providing all the power for two locomotives, its main alternator must provide maximum electrical energy right up to the point of its output limit.
The mother unit (the powered locomotive) has some additional hardware to allow for transfer of elcctrical power to the slug, which has no engine.
