MTARegional Bus Posted April 21, 2015 Share #5153 Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) What is RFW ? Rail Fan Window they were pretty common back then with the older Subway cars. but in 97 they started to full cabs all R62 and some R62A singles, The remaining singles will be converted to a 5 car set or be use as garage trains or work train replacing the work redbirds.

MHV9218 Posted April 22, 2015 Share #5158 Posted April 22, 2015 They converted 2000 to a full cab?, that was quick. 2000 has had a full cab for a while, at least this summer if not last summer. 1996, on the other hand, was very recently done. Very interesting if 2016 still has an RFW at Westchester. My eyes will be peeled. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHV9218 Posted April 25, 2015 Share #5164 Posted April 25, 2015 I didn't know this was the R62A discussion thread... It's been that way for over a year. The R62A/R188 fleets are inextricably tied right now, so there is no reason to separate posts about either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever got on a train where the A/C was broke and it smelled horrible. That is horrible I remember being on a R32 train and it was mid summer and that train was pretty much empty. That car had a few people on it while the ones around that one had A/C and were packed. Edited May 5, 2015 by NewFlyer 230 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YankeesPwnMets Posted May 7, 2015 Share #5174 Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) I already rode a couple of 62As on the with busted A/Cs. They were blasting hot air on Monday and Tuesday when the temperature was in the 80s. I wouldn't have been surprised if the temperature inside the car reached triple digits.
