Re: [PHOTOS] R-11's - Before and After

There's the obvious loss of the central standee poles*; and of course the plastic "benches" instead of the original seats.

When rebuilt under contract R-34, the R-11's retained their velon seating. The fiberglass seats came later. As far as the loss of standee poles,
I believe the R-11 were rebuilt for the Franklin Ave shuttle, since nine cars were fine with one spare.
