MTR Admiralty Posted November 27, 2008 Share #3 Posted November 27, 2008 Yes this was for the Taking of the Pelham 123 (2009). The foamers on SubChat called it R142B! LOL. Those artists did a pretty job of rendering a R62 into a NTT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTR Admiralty Posted November 27, 2008 Share #6 Posted November 27, 2008 By seeing 8837 as the car plate number, some foamers would go mad... "OMG, 8837 IS A DIVISION A CAR" Just to clear it up for them, if they ever do that: 8837 in reality is a R160B car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7LineFan Posted November 27, 2008 Share #7 Posted November 27, 2008 If they could put that into service as is, that would be great... kinda like R7A 1575... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan Railer Posted November 27, 2008 Share #13 Posted November 27, 2008 you get this I think this train was made for the new Taking of Pelham 123. I call it the R162 lol. so did they modify the car (if so, which car #), or did they create it from scratch? i also noticed that the interior is R142ish.

Dave160 Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share #14 Posted November 27, 2008 eh, prolly just a modified R62. They had to do this because in scenes of the movie, they have to uncouple the cars, and R142's can't individually be coupled. Just a theory. I wonder if this thing could actually run.

Just a theory.I wonder if this thing could actually run. probably, since it seems to have all propulsion equipment still intact, and they do use r62a singles for service...

Kexpress Posted November 27, 2008 Share #16 Posted November 27, 2008 Maybe the will rebuilt R62/R62A and some will be R142/R142A systle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted November 27, 2008 Share #17 Posted November 27, 2008 Maybe the will rebuilt R62/R62A and some will be R142/R142A systle. No, the MTA is not going to do that..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTR Admiralty Posted November 27, 2008 Share #18 Posted November 27, 2008 Maybe the will rebuilt R62/R62A and some will be R142/R142A systle. Some people assumed that the MTA would give those cars a GOH and during that will give upgrades that will turn it into a NTT. These cars are fine the way they are, no need for them to be changed.

MTR Admiralty Posted November 28, 2008 Share #25 Posted November 28, 2008 Wow, that is creepy that a R-62 is becoming nearly exactly like a R-142!!! They did it intentionally to render it into a R142A mock-up. It's not that creepy to me, as I heard of many transit agencies turn a set of cars into something totally different. The TTC took a T1 subway car and made it into a "Rocket"... (the mock-up is pretty grotesque, mind me)... However, the purpose for this transition is quite odd... turning this into a "NTT" for a film! Wow... I think, in the future, when the R62s have ended their lives, this car will be preserved (just like how the French Connection R42s cars are being preserved), but again, it is too far in the future to think about.
