Posted by TerrapIN StatiON on Sun Apr 12 10:57:09 2015, in response to Re: LIRR Leaks Photo of M9 car in Japan, posted by randyo on Thu Apr 9 16:03:33 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.Yes, and as I mentioned in other posts, THEY DON'T WANT THEM TO BE COMPATIBLE. And I'd bet there are good reasons for it. 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!!!!!How do you know? That said, you can't even understand what I'm telling you, so it seems you are either a bit rusty or are way behind the times. |
