Every NYCT subway car has a metal tag on the side that says "Property of _________" The R Series cars up through R-46 satid the City of NY. The R-62s and the R-68s had the same EXCEPT for the cars that were owned by the PANYNJ which so stated. When I was responsible for the R-68s a certain number had to be called in each year so that the owners could have them inspected and insure that they were being properly maintained. I had the list of R-68s with some of my other documentation but cannot locate it. The R-62 that was damaged beyond repair on the #4 line during the 2000 World Series was one of those cars. It sat for a long time in Concourse Yard until the owners & their insurers gave the okay to scrap it.Now I've been responsible for R-46s and R-44s, R42s, R-40s. R-32s and even R-38s. I'm telling you that NONE of them were leased. None of them were ever required to be called out of service for inspection by bank owners. You can either take my word for it or not. |
