Re: [PHOTOS] R-42's In Colorado (Newkirk Photos)

Posted by randyo on Fri Oct 13 15:38:49 2017, in response to Re: [PHOTOS] R-42's In Colorado (Newkirk Photos), posted by Ian Lennon on Wed Oct 11 21:32:07 2017.

The R-42s GOHed by CIYd retained their original WH master controllers and equipped with NYAB Newtran brakes instead of WABCO RT-2 brakes. from what I have heard from some M/M the NYAB brakes were not as responsive as the WABCOs which is why they were the first to go along with the Group II GOH R-32s which were similarly equipped. It’s interesting now that many of the T/Os seem to think that the R-68s, which are NYAB equipped, operate more smoothly than the R-68As which have WABCO brakes.
