Posted by randyo on Mon Feb 13 04:11:31 2006, in response to Re: Fulton Street El Express Service, posted by JOE @ NYCTMG - NYCMTS on Sat Feb 11 05:56:42 2006. Just some quick observations. I was under the impression the the Lo-V Manhattan el cars were built as Hi-Vs and subsequently converted to Lo-V sometime around their conversion to MUDC. Most of the old time el men I spoke to insisted that all the Manhattan cars were Hi-V despite documentation to the contrary. Regardless of which is the case, did the Lo-V Manhattan cars have automatic acceleration as on the flivvers and standard Lo-V subway cars or were they manual acceleration as on the Hi-Vs thereby causing the confusion among the El men I spoke to? |
