Posted by murray1575 on Tue Sep 6 21:25:42 2011, in response to Re: PHOTOS: R28 Redbirds, posted by Steve B-8AVEXP on Tue Sep 6 21:10:20 2011. They were as originally built (H2CA coupler instead of the usual H2C) but when they went through GOH the couplers were removed and the cars were linked with a drawbar as was done on the R29/33/36 cars at the factory. The R27/30's were built the same way but I think they stayed with couplers until they were scrapped in the 1990's. The museum seems to have done a good job repainting the areas that got tagged when the cars were still on NYCT property. They even left some rust spots at the bottom - that makes them look like they did in their later days in service. |
