Some questions about the L |
|
|
Posted by insidetransitcom on Fri Nov 6 14:53:34 2009 for the past couple of weeks I've had the chance to ride the L from Bedford into manhattan - It is pretty exciting for me as I never get to ride the L. I have a couple of questions...1. is the only visible difference btw the r143 and r160 the digital display inside the car where the posters are on the r160? anything else i should look for? 2. is the L 8 cars or 10 cars? I assumed 10 (even though the j/m is 8 cars all being eastern div?) but the board over the conductors spot said 8. What made this weird is that the board at the 49th st broadway stop had the same signs and those are 10 cars . I thought maybe it was for a short train but I didn't see another board. 3. Why does the L go so much faster through the tunnel than the 7 does? :) thank you |
