Maserati7200 Posted April 14, 2009 Share #14 Posted April 14, 2009 I just saw an R40 slant today... I can't believe they'll be gone soon. You know whats weird, I'm at 59th street Columbus circle every school day and have not once seen an R46 train. I feel left out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan Railer Posted April 14, 2009 Share #22 Posted April 14, 2009 wonder why they would transfer the 2 car R46 sets to pitkin first ahead of the rest of the 4 car sets, maybe for the service cuts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea, but from observation, they are pushing the higher number cars to Pitkin, which would include the pairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
