7LineFan Posted September 16, 2008 Share #2 Posted September 16, 2008 :eek: Must be replacing one of the R32 put-ins... funny, because I saw one of those R32 ®s just yesterday! Those are some bright yellow signs. Probably because they've never been used before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayBuffer Posted September 16, 2008 Share #6 Posted September 16, 2008 Nice catch, but did this R-42 actually go into service as an ? I would think from all the correct signage that it most likely did. Would definitely be a rare sight for 95th or anywhere on the 4th Ave Line now. Used to occasionally see a slant and even a rare R-42 get rerouted there. Hope it stays it around for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayBuffer Posted September 16, 2008 Share #10 Posted September 16, 2008 Oh ok, cool. Hope I get one soon. I see quite a few R-32s in the late rush hour at my end of the line. I like the R-32 rollsigns for their route descriptions, "Qns Blvd / Bway / 4 Av" over the R-42s. But I could do without those flip-dots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take the every weekday during rush hour when I go and come back from school,and I always get the 32's to. This means,instead of me getting on the 32's,i'll be getting on those 42's!!

Jamaica Express Posted September 17, 2008 Share #19 Posted September 17, 2008 So being that all these R-42's are finding their way to Jamaica,can I expect to see them on the one day or any time soon? and not to get off topic but I saw picture of an R-46 incorrectly signed for the then I saw another picture of an R-46 in Coney Island Shops signed for the ....I thought that the R-44/46/68's didnt come with signs because the curves on the BMT Eastern Division were too sharp to accomadate 75 foot cars...did this problem get fixed??

The R68/R68A Signs were updated Pre July 2001 Manhattan Bridge Swap; hence, before then, all letters and routes were included in the R68/R68A rollsigns. The R44/R46s, I guess the rolls were never changed. Zachary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
