Actually, being out in the open was just the result of the R-32s being put on the A line. The long run from Grant Av. to 207 St. was still to long in hot tunnels for the cars especially if they only got to run to Lefferts to "cool off". In reality, the goal was to put more cars with functioning Air Conditioning on the C and spread the "wealth". The reason the swap was made with Pitkin was because they are "sister" shops.The move with the R-32 to the J for the summer makes more sense so long as 207th St does not touch the maintenance on the r-160s except for cleaning. It shows that now, someone is at least serious about the issue of the ambient temps. that the R-32s can operate in. |
