R32 3838 Posted April 6, 2014 Share #2382 Posted April 6, 2014 That's odd I wonder why so soon, if this is true then they may see service Monday but for now we should just wait and see 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can image if it really was true. To see an R32 on the after 5 years. I rode the R42 yesterday and after not sitting down on one of them since 2008 those seats felt very low. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice and wide. They do need to clean the outside, though. As for an R32 , i'll wait for confirmation from someone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice, after all I did grow up with that train. But if one does get thrown on there, you're gonna hear complaints from the riders again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowblock Posted April 7, 2014 Share #2389 Posted April 7, 2014 You guys are hilarious. We have a bulletin for doing vibration testing on the R32 for Apr 12-13, for which TWO sets will be used. All of a sudden, we have speculation about the R32's running during the week, on both the and , and the using R46s. What else can we throw in the rumor mill? 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
