MTR Admiralty Posted December 9, 2008 Share #12 Posted December 9, 2008 Well yesterday I was buying a present for my girl (cause today's her birthday), so I came out from Macy's and headed to 8th Avenue (to take the or ) to Chambers. So I got to the platform and then a Mod pulled up. And I went "oh crap... it's here now". So anyways all the ©s on the line are Mods or 42s (from my point of view; 34th to Chambers). is mostly comprised of R44s. R38s are yet to be found.

MTR Admiralty Posted December 11, 2008 Share #14 Posted December 11, 2008 Oh, what is a mod really? It's really the R40 only built with a R42-like end. It's "modified". And since they are still under the R40 order, we differentiate them from the slants by calling them slants and mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTR Admiralty Posted December 11, 2008 Share #16 Posted December 11, 2008 Oh, I get it, the R40M right? Or another type? Thanks, MTR, ! Simply 40M and none other. Unless people start calling the special R62 carset for Taking of the Pelham 123 a mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTR Admiralty Posted December 11, 2008 Share #18 Posted December 11, 2008 Thank you MTR! I never'd known that the R-40M is really a R-40'Mod'! And yeah, lol for the Pelham 123 R62, ! You're welcome. M stands for Mod. I am note sure if it is used specifically in MTA contracts and instruction manuals. Railfanners here use it to tell the difference. Technically, slants and mods are both R40. It is just the end that matters the most for them. lol The "R162" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the cars the uses are the R40 Slant, R40 Modified and R42 cars, but someone raised a point there, why not make the trains 10 cars long?
