bveguy Posted August 1, 2009 Share #7 Posted August 1, 2009 I used to ride the R32 when it ran on the West End. It wasn't that hard and it wasn't that easy to find one that time.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bknightshadow45 Posted August 1, 2009 Share #8 Posted August 1, 2009 Back in 2006 I was waiting for a R160 train at Lexington Ave. While I was waiting I saw a R32 train. All the roll signs had listed the diamond W train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really missed out on all the good car assignments. Yeah, it was pretty neat to have rode on an R32 B train a few years back. Shame they had to be removed from the N for some reason, but at least the B line got to run a few R32's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pu3rToRoCk8947 Posted August 1, 2009 Share #10 Posted August 1, 2009 I remember back in the early to mid 1980's,the West End Line ( had all fleet R-32's,some time after that the R-40 slants took over.I also remember the old rollsigns,the doors were like dark blue on the outside and orange on the inside,hand grabs,powder blue seats as well,afterwards rebuilding would alter the R-32's appearance.I believe i saw an R-32 one time on the a few months ago,some time in late 2008.

All the roll signs had listed the diamond W train. The diamond was the only bullet then available for any (W)/<W> service. I don't think the diamond was ever replaced on the R32s or R38s.

R32 Anthony Posted August 3, 2009 Share #15 Posted August 3, 2009 When the train replaced the ( train, I caught an R32 . I was so happy and amazed, because at that time, the only ran R68's. I took it to Coney Island, and took the B64 bus to the 86 Street station to catch the s79. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTR Admiralty Posted August 3, 2009 Share #16 Posted August 3, 2009 No, they were gone way before that. By Mid 2007 the R32's were gone. That's true, I saw them moving the trains back around January 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
