Ok, I know I just put up pics of my R40 sign, but I was looking around my room today and I can't really remember what I have posted and what I have not. So I decided today that I would use my free time to post everything I could find that was just in my room.

Dear lord! I love that rollsign with the pink 7. Is that from an R17 and would you mind posting pics of all the routes on it? And your radio does it work without the holster, I know at BERA we have 2 of them in our R17.

 

P.S. If you ever want to sell that rollsign, I would love to put a bid on it.

I don't have that much, but my grandfather used to have a vintage subway map he kept with him and I think it's still bolted to his door. I could have sworn I saw a blue (Y) and (H) train along Far Rockaway. I have to ask him if he stills have it. Expect pictures the next time I see him at Bayside!

QuickCard
