That scheme actually wasn't all that bad as long as the car stayed clean. Of course, that didn't last very long.

Great Thread rbseabeach! The R36 Worlds Fair on the 7 were mt fav. They just remind me of bein a kid going to Shea. I kinda like the blue doors on the R32s as number 2. Reminds me of going to Coney Island as a kid.

OH HELL NO. That was too juicy a pot-stirrer to omit from the thread.

Serious answer: I really don't have a constant favorite color so today it's Arnine green :D

True, but the colors were the same minus some black trim separating the colors. I often thought it was too bad that the R-10 scheme wasn't applied to the rest of the painted fleet.

Without a doubt, they looked awesome. I advocate colors, but not on everything, just the new bore machines.

I always thought it was too bad that scheme wasn't kept on the R-10s for a longer period of time.

The Redbird scheme is by far the best!! Second, the Dark Green sported by the R-10s in their final road days, and the days of the MTA Blue stripe on the sides and front of the R-44/46!!

Since there was no response to this, I decided just to keep this up front a while longer by saying: London has painted trains as nealry every other world system you can think of, and yet, NY, the leader in transit, still does nothing. Even PATH made the ends of their new rides tand out. What is so difficult or horrible about that?
