Ms. DiAngelo...said the sense of stepping into a time warp was heightened because, just as the train pulled into the station, she had been listening to an Ella Fitzgerald recording of “Take the A Train” on her iPod.

It doesn't get much cooler than that.

Charles Adams Jr., the general superintendent of the maintenance shops for the A and C lines, said it was running at its top speed of about 50 miles an hour, the same maximum speed achieved by today’s more streamlined stainless steel trains.

The difference he said, is that the new trains accelerate at a faster rate, about 2.5 miles per hour per second, compared with 1.9 miles per hour per second for the older trains.

Too bad #1000 and #1300 couldn't join in. Wonder how they're doing.

1300 ran on one or two trips after it was restored and hasn't been out since. Maybe they figured six cars would suffice and opted to keep the R-10 wannabe in the mix.
