There is actually a simpler way to get an R27/30 to look a lot like an R-32 and it had been used previously. After the North Shore interurban got the Electroliners, the North Shore, painted the lower portions of a small group of its standard cars in a silver color with shading that made it look almost exactly like corrugated stainless steel. These cars were called "Silverliners" and were intended for use in Electroliner service when one of the actual Electroliners was out of service for maintenance or repair. Not that the MTA would have wanted to go to the expense but it could have done something similar with its LAHT fleet to make all the cars look more uniform instead of the redbird scheme which quite frankly I never liked. Whether you like my suggestion or not, try to imagine if you will an R-36 looking very similar to an IRT sized R-32 or an R-30looking somewhat like an R-32 with drop sash windows. |
