The car was crowded, so I figured I'd note its # when I exited. But I had a lot going on that day, and it slipped my mind.I really thought it was the beginning of a seat replacement project on the R62/62A cars....too bad. Last week, I was on an R62A on the 1 (I forget the unit #, but it was definitely one of the usual cars on the 1- not reassigned from someplace) and the interior lighting was FREAKIN' SUPER BRIGHT!!! No other way to describe it than to use all caps. I was curious if they'd switched out the fluorescents in favor of LEDs- but when I looked closely at the lights, I could still see (I think) the darker spot at the end of the tubes, as is common with fluorescents, so no, probably not LEDs. I'm not sure if I liked it. I'm not normally a fan of 5,000 Kelvin lighting, but this is the subway, and bright lighting might discourage sleeping, thus deterring the homeless and making the good folks more aware of their surroundings. I also thought this would be the beginning of a trend, but now, I wonder- were a few cars just set to run the lights "hotter"? |
