Dj Hammers Posted July 29, 2014 Share #1 Posted July 29, 2014 Today the museum R16, R40 Slant, and R42 made a trip down to the museum from 207th Street Yard and returned to the yard later that afternoon. What they did down at the museum I'm not sure of, but here's the footage from the move:Enjoy, and please subscribe! Also, Mr Railfan was with me and took video as well, but he is unable to post right now. Here is his video. Be sure to check out his other videos as well!
