Re: Tour of East Side Abscess New LIRR Terminal Taking Shape Beneath Grand Central Terminal

The R-442 were scrapped because they had major structural issues which the R-32s did not. I believe that the SI R-44s needed a bit of structural reenforcement in order to keep them running in addition to their having been built a bit stronger to meet the FRA requirements which applied at the time.
