Today, history was made in which the last remaining R27 subway car, car number 8145 was removed from NYCT property - some 23 years after 229 of its sister cars were removed and scrapped. 8145 did her last years as a School Car, first at 36th Street Yard in the 1990s, and then later at Pitkin Yard.

8145 was joined with R30 subway car 8463, which was used in the movie "Money Train" for scenes filmed in the New York City area before also becoming a school car.

The photos were taken by the 215th Street Station in Upper Manhattan. This on my way to work.
