INDman Posted May 10, 2011 Share #1 Posted May 10, 2011 Photos were taken today of an R46 train that was taken from the line in Coney Island Yard. It only did one round trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted May 11, 2011 Share #5 Posted May 11, 2011 Awesome, not because it's an R46, but cuz of the sunset and the bus in the same pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INDman Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share #6 Posted May 11, 2011 Awesome, not because it's an R46, but cuz of the sunset and the bus in the same pic. I found out ahead of time that the train was running and I figured I would shoot it out side. I know everyone likes to shoot trains coming up the hill, but I thought that shooting from the street would be something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RailBus63 Posted May 14, 2011 Share #11 Posted May 14, 2011 Nice catch, but I have to disagree with the idea that R-46’s on the is ‘the way it should be.’ The 46’s were used on the Culver Line for over three decades and were the main car class assigned to the route for most of that time. We all had plenty of time to ride, record and photograph these cars on the . It was a great run, but now it’s time to enjoy them on 8th Avenue, Fulton St. and in the Rockaways.

As a kid, the was all R46s and latter had some R32s. I remember it and always will remember the as an R46 line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
