7LineFan Posted March 27, 2009 Share #1 Posted March 27, 2009 Courtesy of the New York Post, on page 7 of the March 26 paper there is a picture of an R62A train. Photo looks like it was in fact taken on the line, with the 125 St Station in the background. My scanner doesn't work; otherwise I'd put a scan up. I can only LOL and shake my head.

Y2Julio Posted March 27, 2009 Share #9 Posted March 27, 2009 i have to say, whoever wrote that article is a first class idiot. why does the media always mess up perfectly good photos? Because it's cheaper to use a stock image and photoshop it to what you want, rather than paying a photographer to go out there and get a new shot.
