Or add to the Holiday Special R-1/9 for a 10 car train in December. I didn't think there were any R-10's in running condition. What's their story? |

What's up with that ?Were those two R-10's being towed dead or were they functioning MU cars ? Bill Newkirk |

At long last...YES!!!Perhaps now they will be given TLC, and make them roadworthy again in accepting and taking passengers...including me!!! Yes, for those who know me, my all-time favorite NYC subway cars are the R-10's, and my all-time favorite NYC subway line is the "A". And so it goes... -William A.

You took the words right out of my mouth. Too bad they didn't save a few more of them. One of life's little pleasures was a CPW express DASH on an R-10 Abbott, ripping past 81st n/b at warp speed. |

My favorite SMEE car is the R27/30. I do wish they could get one its feet and perhaps marry it to an R10, R34, or R16 to get it to run. |

My God. What the hell were they thinking not saving at least two more of them? At least they're able to operate with other SMEE cars. If they get them ready to receive passengers, I hope they paint the exterior aqua blue & white and the interior two tone gray. |

Those two R-10's (#3189-blue & #3184-two grey w/orange stripes) were most likely in storage outside the Transit Museum on track A2 (north side), past the switch and in the direction of Hoyt-Schermerhorn (sealed off).Also there, as seen captured in the later videos, as the cars were taken out and being sent to 207th Street Yard, were the R-36 ML pair (#9542-9543), the R-32 pair (#3352-3353), Steeplecab Locomotive #6 and the IRT R-17 #6609. -William A.

Posted by randyo on Thu Jun 22 16:56:08 2017, in response to Re: VIDEO: R10 Museum Cars being transferred to 207th St Yard, posted by Joe V on Tue Jun 20 18:08:48 2017. As a former M/M, the main objection I had to the R-27/30 cars was the heavy spring tension on the deadmans’ buttons of the WH master controllers. Starting with the IRT’s R-28s, WH changed the design of the controller handle back to what was on the WH Lo-Vs and BMT steels. It was supposedly done because the M/M were complaining about the spring tension on the WH controllers that had been in use for years on the R-1s through R-26s. it seems that BMT and IRT M/M claimed that the controller design on the WH Lo-Vs and Steels was easier to hold down than the controllers on the WH R-types. When WH accommodated the request, the company unfortunately increased the spring tension making the so called “improved” design harder to hold down that the ones being complained about. The worst of them were the R-29s through 30s. While the R-32 through 36 WH controllers were identical in appearance, the spring tension had been lessened considerably and those cars were much easier to operate. There was nothing worse for BMT M/M than getting a WH controller on a QJ trip between Jamaica and Stillwell not only on the outbound trio but on the return as well. One Sunday when I was a M/M on the RR, I had an R-27 with WH controllers on both ends and had that train for the first full round trip from Astoria to 95 St and another half back to 95 St. |
