It's fine with me..though I will miss the Fan Window..

Heck..I remember the first time I rode em..way back when with my pops on the QJ.
It was HIS train..and I got to stand at the RFW the WHOLE TRIP to Coney Island.

Even had lunch at Nathans Famous..

It was a fun day for sure..but hot as all out.

So..I'll miss them...but its not a big deal.

The R42s on the J and M lines, yes, they are ok. But the R42 CI Rebuilds are just not that good of a car.

I don't know if he is old enough to remember the R30s.

Re: PHOTOS: This ''TWO'' Weeks In Transit, R160A #8325

Trevor,

Your pictures are AWESOME! (As usual) ;-) You don't disappoint.

My favorite pic is the full side shot of R160A 8325. Excellent color and composition! I'm surprised someone programmed it for the Q, with it being part of a 4-car set that will probably never be used on the Q. R160B 8787 makes more sense because that is a part of a 5-car set.

The interior shot of R160B 8787 with the FIND system showing "To 96 St" is PRICELESS!

Questions for others...
Can the 4-car and 5-car set of the Alstom R160As be combined and run together? (I know, only 9 cars, but might be useful during a car shortage to make an almost full consist.) Can the R160As and R160Bs be coupled together and run as a mixed consist?

Maybe I can answer some of those questions.

R36ML car 9542 and its mate 9543, IIRC are still at the Transit Museum...well, technically. They're sitting right outside the museum in the tunnel on the B-Division track, if i'm not mistaken.

9564 sure does look horrible, but i doubt it will be scrapped soon. 9074 is linked to it because for the simple reason, its mate 9075 is at Queens Burough Hall and they needed something to couple 9074 to. Whether the R33 will become a work car of if it will stay coupled to to 9564...it's anyone's guess.

9565 was supposed to go to a museum that was going to be built in Babylon, Long Island. But the museum was never built...or at least not yet...but last time I've heard, 9565 was stripped of some parts.

9588 and 9589 still at Concourse Yard...and vandalized. And 9595, I guess is already gone.

As for R6 100, and the two R16s, I guess the CIY personell have to just find the time...or the manpower via volunter work or some similar means to get them up and running again.

Did you see the second set of pics? There's an R-160 signed up as a Moe.

Start by going to the Brooklyn waterfront and take photos of the NYC lower Manhattan skyline.

Well other than the consist size, they should be able to trainline together whether they are 4- or 5-car consist.

The electronics are the same and so on.

Oh, right. Sorry, my brain wasn't working when I typed that.

I'm having great difficulty sleeping during the hours when people traditionally sleep. This, in turn, leads to insomnia, which leads to partial temporary brain death.
