Do you realize that by August of this year, the R 32's will be 48 years old. Which means they've just about outlasted every class of the IRT Lo-V's that ran in service. They even outlasted the 1910-1911 Hedley Hi-V's which ran until 1958. What an amazing record for a post war car. Testament to the hight standards employed by the Budd company. |
