The I Man Posted March 22, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 22, 2011 Hi everyone. I have been a fan of the New York City Transit System since the age of 4 when my Grandfather took me on a Myrtle Ave Elevated Line Ride the year before it closed in 1969. I also post occasionally post on Sub Chat although that board needs more moderation to stop the constant negativity and Flame Wars. I posses a Masters in Civil Engineering from Polytechnic University and work in this field. On the job I need to sweat the details of my work. Outside of work, I will not engage in or reply to any argument regarding trivial matters. If someone wants to argue, for example that the last run of the R-9's was in 1980 and not the correct 1977, I won't argue about it. My slide collection numbers over 2000 as well as about 1000 slides taken by my Grandfather, which I will post on Dave Pirmanns site and possibly here. I am Divorced and have two children which keep me pretty busy. Anyhow thanks for allowing me to join and :cool:lets have some fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The I Man Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share #4 Posted March 23, 2011 Yes a rode it with my grandgather at the age of 4. There is a picture of him sitting next to me on a rattan seat explaining to me how the Q Types were the last wooden cars remaing in serice in the United States. I remember asling him 'you mean that all the trains aren't as nice as this'? As for Subchat, I have great respect for Larry Fendwick, the owner of the site. You can tell that he is becoming burn't out running it as he rarely reefs posts anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
