Radioguy Posted November 11, 2008 Share #4 Posted November 11, 2008 You would like some of the older designations from the 60s and 70s. There were more colors used then. I don't lilke the in brown, though. That looks too odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken S. Posted November 11, 2008 Share #5 Posted November 11, 2008 The Yellow T isn't that far out of this world. The TA should have used T instead of W when they flipped sides on the Manny B since that's what the first W basically was. Now on the NJTA, these are the color/letter setups Blue- A, C, E, F, G, K, S, Z Orange- B, C, E, H, M, V, S, T, Y Yellow- B, D, H, I, M, N, Q, R, S, T, W, Y, (5, 7, and 8 are being made and installed on commuter cars) Brown- I, J, L, O, S Red- 1, 2, 3, 9, S Green- 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, S Black- S White Circle/Black Letter- P, S, U, X NJ TRANSIT AMTRAK SEPTA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not in the avatar list at the moment, but the (AA) had a purple bullet for some time. That's sort of close. Although, if the (P) isn't pink when it rolls around, then no other should be.

INDman Posted November 14, 2008 Share #17 Posted November 14, 2008 I believed they were actually given an Orange A sign. From what I have heard from many people is that the R110B was the only train to have the 6th Ave A or the 14th Street K. Somewhere I have a pic of the sign box that shows all the routes on the front rollsign. The last pic I saw of an R110B cab car, the front rollsign was gone. I hope it did not get dumped, would love to see some pics of it if someone has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radioguy Posted November 19, 2008 Share #20 Posted November 19, 2008 As I know there were K signs on the R-46's and R-44's. I think I have pics downloaded from http://www.nycsubway.org/ . In fact there are , and(JFK) signs there too. I have seen <R> at least once a year in the subway, in my life since 1995-1996 when I am 4 years old. I think most know about those, but more rarely do I see mention of the or which are also contemporary to that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did the switch to 6 Av at West 4 St? Yeah I guess... they made it the Orange A during weekends as well I think. No, they went 6th Avenue Express I believe.
