IIRC, the R-33WF (singles) had dual trip cocks. I was visiting in NYC in 1999 and was waiting for the 7 at Queensboro Plaza (had come from Manhattan on the N) when such a move was taking place. There was a 33WF on each end bracketing 2 pairs of 36WFs. Not knowing about the trip cock issue back then, I was like, that sucks that the crew has to operate in an unairconditioned car. Now after years of reading SubChat (and SubTalk), I know better :)BTW, this move took place during the PM rush hour. Meanwhile, a revenue e/b 7 was stuck waiting on the curve just west of QBP. Surprised they would make the move at that time, but I guess there was a good reason. |
