Posted by randyo on Thu Apr 9 16:03:33 2015, in response to Re: LIRR Leaks Photo of M9 car in Japan, posted by terRAPIN station on Thu Apr 9 14:51:18 2015. AsI mentioned in a couple of other posts, the IND R-1s through 9s and all the IRT (and BMT/IND care for that matter) postwar equipment from the R-12s through the R-36s was fully compatible and the contracts for the NYCTA SMEEs actually specified that the cars be fully compatible without all other R types from the R-10s on up. When I was in the schedule office and the R-62s were being discussed, the plan was to also have them fully compatible with all other postwar NYCTA equipment. At my worst, I have a lot more operating and planning experience in the field of mass transit than you will ever have, so that definitely qualifies me to make judgments of that kind!!!!! |
