Quickie tidbits on the R-10 at this year's "Parade of Trains" (June 16-17, 2018)

1. The car rides fine, but it operates with a pair of R-32 trucks. So, it is not noisy and not loud at all to ride, and brakes operate OK with no squealing and no flat wheels.

2. The car has a different sounding air compressor, like an R-16 to R-22 (mostly likely a WABCO A-2 or A-3, not its original A-1).

3. All side doors (except one leaf at the end that was cut out) open and close in sync with the other cars in the TOMM (R-16/40/38) with no time release delay.

4. All fans and the lights do work.

I took a total of 12 round trips inside #3184 (six on Saturday, an six on Sunday). And so it goes...
