R32 3348 Posted May 26, 2008 Share #1 Posted May 26, 2008 This was the first time I used my sister's digital camera, which BTW is a Fujifilm FinePix A500, 5.1 MP. Since this was the case I was not at all used to the shutter delay or how the pictures got blurred if I didn't take them the proper way. Trip highlights - from 96th to 51st St from 53rd St to Rockefeller Center from Rockefeller to Brighton Beach from BB to Coney Island from Coney Island to Queensboro Plaza From QBP to Junction, then a local back to 74th (due to a G.O.) BTW, when do I give a 56K warning?

Pablo M 201 Posted May 26, 2008 Share #2 Posted May 26, 2008 Very nice shots! That last one is really great. You can give a 56K warning if you post alot of photos or the photos are of high quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze Posted May 28, 2008 Share #9 Posted May 28, 2008 Great shots of the (! Are there actually some Slant sets still running as of today? I'll be in NYC in about 2 weeks but I'm afraid all I might catch of the Slants then is their line-up at 207th St Yard B) I've figured out from the ( timetable that it needs some 24 train sets in AM rush, so hopefully 4 or 5 of those trains are still Slants...

R32 3348 Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share #10 Posted May 28, 2008 About 5 f those trains are R68/As but their number is expected to increase rapidly in the ocming weeks and months. In two weeks they'll still be there but it'd be uncommon to see one. The train I got on was an R40M. I did see quite a few slants pass by, but mostly the modifieds. Yuo should be able to get one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
