Thanks Fred. But it does appear to be a bit crooked. I would love to get back there and take more underground photos. So many good angles in those stations...

Sorry you didn't make it to these trips. You would have been a wonderful addition.

Shoe paddles could easily deal with that problem as well, however nowadays you're no longer allowed to apply them to the geese. :(

Although I still say a "C" car w/cabs on both ends would be better and since the MTA is fining ppl for crossing b/w cars anyway then what difference does it make?

It makes a big difference in an emergency.

Why don't they run the 30 or so redbirds that remain?

If the TA were forced to run the 3 or so trainsets of redbirds that remain, would they be able to do so? Or would the cars have to be modified/rebuilt/unconverted before they can carry passengers again? Does the TA still have enough redbirds to make a full trainset or have most been converted to unpowered rider cars?

Caught it on Monday and although it was a short time on it, it was pretty neat to RF Chambers to SF on the 1 or should I say in reverse. I just got to the platform in time to catch the train at Chambers, so no I didn't get a chance to take a pick of the new tunnel segment of the new sF station. But If anyone has lots of time to RF the 1 now's the best chance to take a pic of it.

I caught it last week.

Looks like the new South Ferry branch will be a grade crossing off the current. So much for any thoughts of using both branches in regular service.

It was nice that the C/R could direct passengers to the front of the train at South Ferry itself, not just at Chambers and Rector.

I rode back uptown at the C/R's position. A bunch of high school kids got on (at 14, I think it was) and were surprised at the lack of a transverse cab. And the C/R had to ask a man to step aside so she could open the door, complaining that it was an old train borrowed from the 7; he responded that he remembered the old trains with wicker seats.

I don't ride the 1 as often as I should, but on regular 1's do the c/r still let riders go thru the cabs or everyone is herded off on the platforms towards the front on Rector and Chambers?

Lol so I take it that c/r wasn't too thrilled about the singles on the 1 then?
