Posted by 33rd Street on Wed Oct 7 14:00:16 2009, in response to Re: R-160 Option III Order, posted by murray1575 on Wed Oct 7 12:36:07 2009. Excellent points. The problem with most subway cars is the material used to build them. The BMT got it right with the Standards, the IND got it right with the Arnines, the TA got it right with the R32's. The Redbirds didn't fare too well because of the steel used to make them. If the Redbirds were made of stainless steel, I bet they'll still be running today.I do understand that it doesn't matter how well the car was made but how the train runs mechanically as well. |
