On This Date 20 Years Ago...

[Guest Lance]

The dawn of a new age (on the B-Division) began. The R110Bs made their first run in revenue service. Sets 3001-03 & 3004-06 made up the consist. Below is the video from that first run.

It literally tells you the time...holy shit I wish I was around to ride and actually notice it. I only recall riding it once on the but I was real young.

20 Years?!?! Wow... I guess we can celebrate 20 years of NTTs in the subway.

(I would count it was R142, but whatever).

Thanks for posting Lance. We should do these quite more.

Interesting video, not only I can see this stock (How many time did it run?) but it also gave me an idea of the feel of New York City subway back then.

Old turnstiles, passengers etc...

I rode it, and saw it on display, laid up on the express platform  @ Union Tpke on the QBL during it's debut! Cut school and everything just to see it!
