Let's just say that as an employee at the time, sure didn't work for me. Sorta like painting a bus "asphalt gray" including the windows. :(

A/C on the R-27/30s would have increased their weight to BMT standard proportions.

Dude..

He Works for the MTA/NYCT and from what I gather,is a supervisor WORKING out of PITKIN YARD...
I truly doubt you know more about the system than he does.

Train Dude maybe rough around the edges..but he's a good guy..someone you CAN LEARN FROM...

So I'd sit back and LISTEN to the man,if I were you.

What was the "new" paint scheme..?

You talkin' Bout the silver/blue mess..?
If so..No it wasn't.

It only looked good on SOME rail cars..like the R27/30...
But was UGLY as hell on the R7-9 cars...

I hated the white IRT cars. I really thought that was stupid, but it made a political point at best.
When you think of white the last thing that comes to mind is the filthy harsh conditions of the NYC subway system.
On the MTA scheme I thought it also looked good on LIRR trailer cars.
But the R10's, R27's blah!

I know about the R-27/30s. Not all of the R-7/9s got the silver and blue treatment. I think I saw one or two in one of the yards, but never rode on one that had been repainted.
