R44 5278 Posted August 18, 2009 Share #4 Posted August 18, 2009 I guess that the last ones with the best A/C are done in a few weeks. I was really frustrated that the V got suspended on the weekday that I railfanned weeks back as I knew that the V would have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transit2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Share #7 Posted September 6, 2009 Last Saturday I rode the R160s on the J line from Sutphin Boulevard/ Archer Avenue/JFK Airport in Queens to the final stop Chambers Street in New York City. It was my second time I been rode the R160s on this line and the last time I rode this it was back in January of this past year. Those cars are the best!!!!

Pelham Bay Dave Posted September 7, 2009 Share #9 Posted September 7, 2009 I don't know about R32's on the only see one set and that was Thursday PM Rush. If they suspend service one weekend you make see a few R32 on the since they use equipment change the signs and add two cars in the Yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan Railer Posted September 8, 2009 Share #12 Posted September 8, 2009 Can't you tell if the train is in full service by checking the pressure guage? are you talking to the railfan or the T/O? i'm sure the only way to check the brake pressure for a railfan on a 32 is from the platform looking into an empty cab.

Robert Paniagua Posted September 9, 2009 Share #14 Posted September 9, 2009 Oh that was a good move, since it's an annoying problem uphere in Boston's MBTA Red Line when the train goes into emergency, to hold the Master Controller down, the M/C on the R32s are the best as the ones on the Slants And you also didn't have to deal with ATO Codes as well, like, 25 or 10. Do you guys ever get to do 50? (80 km/h) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylors Law Posted September 9, 2009 Share #15 Posted September 9, 2009 Can't you tell if the train is in full service by checking the pressure guage? As is the case with most trains it will vary from train to train, even similar equipment...the point is I probably could put it in full service but I didnt want to take a chance...
