SubwayGuy 2,321 Posted September 6, 2010 Share #2 Posted September 6, 2010 Yup that's in the Greller book. The BMT Standard that went farther than any other on the Jamaica El. It was trying to go to 169th Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadcruiser1 286 Posted September 6, 2010 Share #4 Posted September 6, 2010 Who was the T/O of that train. It must have been a drunk bastard careening down the tracks at 55 mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone got an AB to go 55mph on an el, I'd be impressed. Heck even 45. The train also would have overshot the end of track by much more than 20 feet.

There's the reason why you have timers coming into terminals ending with a bumper block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zman 8 Posted September 12, 2010 Share #14 Posted September 12, 2010 Who was the T/O of that train. It must have been a drunk careening down the tracks at 55 mph. Considering how things were run back then, you're probably right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadcruiser1 286 Posted September 13, 2010 Share #16 Posted September 13, 2010 I have a hunch this is an R8A type car. Also their max speed should be 55 mph. If he hit that speed he's drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
