Noticed that people haven't posted here in a while, so I decided to give it a shot. Here's my recreation of the R62 rollsign (with some help from Some Train Enthusiast). I still need confirmation of some aspects of the rollsign, but this should capture most of it. Correct font for the bullets.unknown.png

Its nice, but where do you download the Standard Medium Font?? I Was thinkinh of making my own.

I'm back with the corrected R62/original R62A rollsign! 8 train has been removed.unknown.png

Additionally, I also made the R62A rollsign versions that I'm aware about! The 1988 version is the most accurate as there are YouTube videos featuring it.

1988 R62A version:unknown.png

2009 R62A version (features 1 train short turn destination route bullet experiment):unknown.png

Latest R62A version (entire sign in Neue Haas Grotesk, Express text same color as bullet, NIS centered, year unsure):unknown.png

Please give me some feedback, and any corrections that need to be made!

Also, here are the YouTube video reference links:

Here is my own R62 Rollsign, using ur R62 reference and other YT Videos to get it accurate. This was originally made by my friend TheProD3V and i reedited it accurately. From a reference on YT, the 5 in the diamond is sized barely touching each line and corner. What y'all think??

I now present to you a few of my favorite rollsigns. These are from a car class I haven't posted any signs from until today.

Dated: circa 1971

Used in: R44 cars 100-259

Dated: circa 1971

Used in: R44 cars 260-399

Dated: circa 1972

Used in: R44 cars 100-259

Upon delivery of the R44 order of cars, they were to be assigned to both the Queens Blvd lines and the IND North (anything that ran on Central Park West), hence the service order on each curtain. The A route is included on both versions as it was anticipated that some E trains returning from their trips to the Rockaways would operate back to Manhattan as A trains and vice-versa.

In 1972, when the cars were still being delivered, the HH designation for the Rockaway Park shuttle was discontinued and all trips to the Rockaways operated under the A and E routes.

As always, stay tuned for more.

ok but please don’t include the watermark
