Yeah, #2974 really lasted right to a fitting and glorious end, along with the seven other cars on the fantrip. I personally made sure I took plenty of slides of that particular car itself in regular service during its last year of service (1989) and on the fantrip.Alas, #2974, which I originally rode in 1987 with Elsie Diaz Walters, my Pace University colleague, had eventually found its way after the fantrip onto the storage tracks at Coney Island Yard. It had held out as much as possible until about the end of June 1990, after which it was taken off NYCTA property to be sent for scrapping. To remember when #2974 was on the road... R-10 #2974, Van Siclen Avenue-IND Fulton St. Line. -William A. Padron ["(H) Rockaway Shuttle"] |
