Vistausss Posted March 24, 2011 Share #360 Posted March 24, 2011 I only liked the R44's (by design, no experience riding them) when they were new. Some nostalgia for you guys (was taken 2 years ago by someone): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INDman Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share #366 Posted March 26, 2011 Hopefully we don't get used cars from the TA. You might, the R46 rumor won't go away. Even if you don't get them, I'm sure they will be from a TA car order just like the R44s were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted March 26, 2011 Share #367 Posted March 26, 2011 What sense does that make to send the R46s down there? If they were going to give SIRT 2nd hand cars, then wouldn't it make more sense to give them the R68s? At least those could be ran as single cars [assuming the controls are still functional in the 'blind cars']. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Julio Posted March 26, 2011 Share #369 Posted March 26, 2011 What sense does that make to send the R46s down there? If they were going to give SIRT 2nd hand cars, then wouldn't it make more sense to give them the R68s? At least those could be ran as single cars [assuming the controls are still functional in the 'blind cars']. For best compatibility with the cab signaling system we use, I imagine that it would be better with a new car order specifically designed for SIRT use. Probably would be easier on the engineers to run the R-46s and require less re-training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted March 26, 2011 Share #370 Posted March 26, 2011 Oic. True. Also would it make sense to have just AA pairs [for the new order]? At least then late nights [if they still do it] for 2-car trains, they won't need to 'cut' the B cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 3838 Posted March 27, 2011 Share #371 Posted March 27, 2011 What he said. Credits go to the person who took this shot. Thanks for the credit, I took that shot when I got off the R44, I was on an R32 than got sent down via 6th ave and That R44 came out of nowhere at 42nd st, so I took the R32 to 36th st and took a train back to 47th 50th and took the one stop and I grabbed it there, It felt good ridding that R44 on Queens Blvd, The passengers were like WTH is that Air Noise, I was lol when they said that. I also Have a vid of the R44 on the and I will put it up on Youtube as soon as I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonanza123d Posted March 29, 2011 Share #372 Posted March 29, 2011 I am making probably the most advanced BVE train ever created. The R44 Pre-GOH. I am hoping i can get cab photos of the pre-GOH. I don't know what that thing looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vistausss Posted March 31, 2011 Share #373 Posted March 31, 2011 Well, at least here is a picture for you of a pre-GOH roll sign: Looks amazingly good for a rollsign btw Too bad they didn't kept those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtattrain Posted March 31, 2011 Share #374 Posted March 31, 2011 There the back of the yard near the river. I don't think you can see them from the IRT. D'OH! But at lease you can see R44s at 207th St. if you're lucky. Here's some shots that I recently took: Look's like they're being prepped for scrapping, even the R42 (though off topic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
