MTR Admiralty Posted April 15, 2009 Share #4 Posted April 15, 2009 Ken, you were our "good luck charm"! Those guys came IN NUMBERS (despite the fact there are supposed to be 9 sets left). I see myself. Ha. (I'm in the black coat, to the others) The T/O's looked at us like as if we were crazy. I mean, 7 cameras angled at them! Great pics!

MTR Admiralty Posted April 15, 2009 Share #7 Posted April 15, 2009 Nice man! That R32 was a timely put-in, it just came when we got off from the R160. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanfortitude Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share #8 Posted April 15, 2009 LOL yeah that was awesome. I knew we'd get it if we went to Stillwell. I guess there was no real reason why the train's front door was open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 3348 Posted April 15, 2009 Share #9 Posted April 15, 2009 T/Os use the front door to enter the train from the yard, and I guess they're too lazy to close it before putting it in service. I'll post up my photos soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTR Admiralty Posted April 15, 2009 Share #13 Posted April 15, 2009 I'm just glad that weirdo cop stopped following us. He's doing his job, but not in a civilian-friendly manner. .__. I'll get my pics up probably over the weekend. The FIND was amazing when the train had its lights off the whole time! The effect was best at West 8th!

R32 3348 Posted April 15, 2009 Share #16 Posted April 15, 2009 My turn! Today was really fun, railfanning with Henry (MTR), Leonard (Forest Glen), Dylan (Smoot), Ken (fortitude), Kevin (AWWang), and John (diffusedmind). We covered a lot of ground and got quite a few nice catches too. The day started out dreary, but got better after around 1:30. For me, it would have been better if my pics didn’t come out too under/overexposed and my camera actually worked more often – since it was cold today my camera froze often if I pressed down on the shutter. I missed a lot of good shots, but still managed to get many others. Here are the pics (be sure to check the other forums for bus pics): Stupid signal... Comments are welcome, enjoy!

I took them from the which is on the lower level of that trackway. If I took them from the (the upper level), then they would've come out better since there would have been more light and no obstruction from above.

Smoot178 Posted April 16, 2009 Share #24 Posted April 16, 2009 I am so tired from that trip I am going to bed right now. I can hardly read. I'll image tag most of these tomorrow: http://picasaweb.google.com/Smoot178/April15?authkey=Gv1sRgCM3JjJbP1-Dq-AE# There are also some videos in there! I must say I had the greatest time, perhaps surpassing all other experiences I've had in New York City. Let's do it again sometime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting aside the photos of the trains, those really are the best in terms of artistic composition. That is what it is all about. You never know what you take. If I were you, I would certainly enlarge and print them. Great work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
