EE Broadway Local Posted August 23, 2010 Share #5 Posted August 23, 2010 Great pics! I remember when the R40 Slants were new and they didn't have all that safety hardware they would acquire. They also featured a large colored square with a block capital letter for the route. 70(F) lol Great RFW on the R40 Slant. Innovative design, just impractical for New York.
