dmouse Posted November 25, 2009 Share #1 Posted November 25, 2009 Even though this definetly won't happen, it just a curious question. Has anyone noticed how the R44 & R46 doors are almost exactly the same as the ones on the R143 & R160? Are the doors on the older cars compatible to the NTTs?

SevenEleven Posted November 25, 2009 Share #2 Posted November 25, 2009 I wouldn't believe so. The door motors and locking mechanisms are way different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pr1nyc1 Posted November 25, 2009 Share #3 Posted November 25, 2009 I wouldn't believe so. The door motors and locking mechanisms are way different. You could even tell by just listening to it. With the R160 doors, you can even hear the doors locking, while the R44 & 46, it doesn't make that sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmouse Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted November 26, 2009 ^ Keyword- ALMOST, and besides 5 minutes after i made this thread, I remebered the R160s use different door motors, and the only logical way to reuse the doors is through re manufacruring them. They can be recycled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan Railer Posted November 27, 2009 Share #6 Posted November 27, 2009 yeah, and the ntt car doors don't glitch like the R44's where when open, one panel slides back and forth like 3-4 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a harmless door motor defect that occurs when the train is on a grade. The door always slides "downhill" and then the motor pulls it back after a couple inches, and this repeats itself. Unique to the R44/R46. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PATCOman Posted November 30, 2009 Share #20 Posted November 30, 2009 I have seen that happen on a R46 at 34 Street- 6 Avenue. However, I see this happen more often at any station with an R44. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh Pond Posted December 1, 2009 Share #21 Posted December 1, 2009 Here's another tidbit about the R44/46 doors nobody really noticed... At the terminals when the crew opens that single door per car it makes the closing chime after it opens. Also, while the 1 door is opened if you try to pull that door closed and when it goes back open, it makes the closing chime as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted December 1, 2009 Share #22 Posted December 1, 2009 I can't imagine pulling on the door panels is a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
