That "board" if it even is one or just looks like it, is the way SIR covers their cab-door windows. You can't make a tit-for-tat comparison with NYCT equipment. There are many little difference here and there since they are not one entity. They post the old Evacuation Instructions and in a different place, they have "Watch the Gap" on the doors, they have "Do Not Lean On Door" atop the doors and do not have "Do Not Hold Doors" they're also less concerned about people holding doors open than NYCT from what I've seen. And they have the /\/\ logos.The cars are not in the greatest shape, but the reasons for it have already been explained and go beyond the fact that they're "old". NYCT has even older equipment which is still running and will continue to do so for a few years. When 2011 or 2012 comes along, SIR will get new cars, but based on how their R-44s have been treated by the SI riding public, don't expect the NTTs or M9s to be treated any better. In a few years they're going to be in the same shape. |
