I would imagine it was a successful program when all was said and done. I don’t know of any issues with them except when 5229 lost a brake pedal and had to run into a scaffold to stop.When the 80xx RTS came on the scene in 1991, it was the final kiss of death for unrebuilt new looks and Flxibles. And the subsequent orders of RTS took care of those blitz buses. So by 1994 it was probably hard to find them. I spent a good deal of time in Broad Channel in the summer from 1989 to 1993 and had a good view of the A line. The main trains I remember seeing were R30s. But by 1993 no more. |
