The #7 R36 cars got only a partial overhaul in the early/mid 80s, which was mostly cosmetic-AC installation, repaint in all white body and new beige/orange interior along with only very modest mechanical rework. In the early 90s (1991-93) the GE R36s (9558-up) finally got a decent rebuild, with RT-2 braking package installed, new doors, propulsion, controllers and significant reworking, with some parts coming from the mothballed R30s. However the WE R36s remained more or less intact down to the SMEE and WE CAM units. As a fact, R36 9400-01 at Corona now the only Redbird set in per se original condition, more or less, excluding AC refits, flooring and repainting.While most of the #7 R36s were overhauled in-house at CI, some were also done at Buffalo by GE. All the ML R33s were done in house too, at 207 Street. MK rebuilt all R26/28/29s. |
