I did not know about 3737's modified motor statusI think a list might have been compiled of these modified Hi-V motors somewhere? I will go back to nycsubway.org, and see if this list is included. There was also the same kind of MUDC conversion list that appeared in Cunningham & DeHart's book (the IRT volume) - they might have also included a list of modified motors. The TA's PR dept. had BMT/IRT fleet rosters which they gave out. I still have mine and will look it over again - various groups of Gibbs (& Hedley's? - don't remember) were labeled modified motors - I originally took this to mean the additionn of center doors on the Gibbs cars/and or conversion to MUDC. It was only when Joe Frank answered my question clarifying what modified/pilot motors were some months back (Thank you Joe!) thaI I finally understood the term. |
