Yes, that's what I wanted.The R110B stuck with the BMT Standard truck base because they knew it would work on the Eastern Division, such as the Canarsie tunnel curves, the Myrtle cut, and the nasty Crescent Street curve. I think it safe to assume on a 67' car: 1) you cannot have a truck base < 47' that can run in the East due to end overhang 2) you cannot have an open gangway at all with a truck base <= 47', it must be longer. So there will not be another "universal" 67' car. |
