I love all the pics & vids, especially the R32 (F)! Wonder why they have wrong destination signs..........................Good thing, you didn't get caught by the (MTA) peronnels:)

 

are you talking about the R-32 G train,if so I know they do run some 32 from time to time.

very nice!!

 

and nice catch with that 32 with the cranks, i love playing with the signs lol

 

Thanks and I was surprise to see the R-32 had the crank and it was real fun to play with the rollsigns:p:D

 

Am I correct in saying that that's the only pair left with the cranks?

 

Nice shots BTW.

 

EDIT: You did put them back... right? :):D

I didn't they still have cranks on them until i saw it myself.....thanks and well I put back the 1st two rollisngs correctly someone else messed with the bottom part shhhhhhhh...don't tell anyone;):D

 

Woah...cranks on the R32s. Confused riders galore that equals. Nice job, you are SO lucky to have gotten that. Man, am I going to miss NY when I leave...

Thanks and yes I was lucky and surprised to get the cranks. Where your going since your leaving New York?

Great pics Curt!

 

Wish I could've joined you guys if I didn't make an emergency trip to SI.

 

BTW, what was the number of that R32 with the cranks for the rollsigns.

 

Thanks Pablo....its alright theres always a next time and I don't remember the car number. I look through my pics and I didn't take a pic of that excat car I was in. Ask Orion or Fred maybe one of them remembered the car number!

Nice pics, especially with the R32 (G) train... man I wish I could have been there to catch that.

Thanks. To bad it wasn't the actual (G) train b/c I'd some railfan videos of the Crosstown Line:D

 

I will try, but I'm too far from a station...7 miles... Don't worry, I'll still be in contact.

 

iight cool...I like the sound of that

wow love those pics, seems like that R32 didnt get a sign change, in that car, and love the (2) with the R62A

 

goes to show you how the MTA is cheap with everyone and thing, related to the 32s :D:D

Thanks....lol (MTA) is greddy not cheap. I spotted that R-62A (2) rollsign reflection from the glass

 

Awesome shots! Sorry I got in your R32 pic at Ditmas.:D

 

This pic of Chambers just looks too damn clean!

Either that or I just seek out the nasty parts of teh station :(:D

 

I like the grass at Broadway Jct, too.

Thanks and don't worry about you getting in my shots. Maybe that side of the station looks clean but they need to hurry and rebuild that station though

 

Great shots! This trip was very fun...Too bad for Nick though. :|

 

Thanks and yes the trip was fun
