R404377 Posted December 18, 2012 Share #1 Posted December 18, 2012 Whatever happened to the R38 pair (4028-9) that was supposedly preserved? Also what happened to r40's 4392-3 that were at Rockaway Park Yard? I saw another thread on that from earlier this year. I also saw pics of 4028-9 @ pitkin 2 months ago. So someone tell me what's going on with these cars. Thanks and have a good day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for those R40's, they were in the yard during Sandy, they are dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R404377 Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share #4 Posted December 19, 2012 Will they be scrapped eventually? Do they still exist at least?

Fresh Pond Posted December 19, 2012 Share #8 Posted December 19, 2012 The slant at Rockaway Park is still probably there...made no sense to move it out The slant preserved for the museum is in the museum as a place holder for the arnines That R38 is probably right outside the museum station...they park museum cars there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R32 3838 Posted December 19, 2012 Share #10 Posted December 19, 2012 the R38 4028/9 is in pitkin yard, always been in there since 2010, it was never in rock pk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Young+ Posted December 20, 2012 Share #11 Posted December 20, 2012 The ones that are parked outside of the museum station are usually the R40 Slants (4280-4281). That's probably why they are in the museum now because the move was easy. Compare this to putting either the R32s, R38s, R46s, or whatever else in the "Arnines" spot is a little harder because first the crew has to pull out 100, 484 and 1575 with the rest of the Arnines. Next, they have to do a reverse move with the other cars, separate them, and pull the others back out and go back probably and most likely to 207 Street Yard.

ttcsubwayfan Posted December 20, 2012 Share #16 Posted December 20, 2012 THERE DEAD DONT YOU GET IT?!?!?! Newsflash!! Just because they're dead doesn't mean the MTA would be in a hurry to cart them off to scrap! In any case, thank God I got pics of them when I did.

That is correct...and they will remain in there until 100, 484 and 1575 are pit back in there after the Holiday Nostalgia Train is over for 2012.
