IRT Lo-V Run for Yankees Opener |
|
|
Posted by Milantram on Sat Mar 23 09:47:11 2019 Last I heard was that the Lo-Vs are still at 239 St Yard. Are they still there, or have they been moved to another yard in preparation for the Yankees Opener special?I plan to stake out a station for its deadhead move inbound. Hopefully, they're still at 239 St, which will give me a new opportunity for a new vantage poiint. |

I believe the subway car mechanics prep the train at 239th Yard, when the Yankees have playoff runs the Low V always travel to and from either 180th or 239th street yard to the 4 line to do its run.The real mystery is will the TOMC run despite SMEE cars not being compatible with the current signal system on the 7 line. |

Now I'm curious if/where we will see the TOMC again. Of all the nostalgia trains, it has the largest fleet (14 viable cars?) while still being unusual/eye catching enough to attract a crowd. Not to mention, air conditioning. |
