Posted by Hank Eisenstein on Tue Jul 15 08:33:27 2008, in response to Re: Just only $1.4 Billion to build Staten Island North Shore & West Shore Lines, posted by trainsarefun on Mon Jul 14 16:30:47 2008. The R44s on Staten Island are in much worse shape, both mechanically and visually, that they SHOULD be replaced with something else. The overhauls of the cars were done poorly by NYCT in-house crews, and the SIR crews didn't change any of their lousy maintanence practices when they came back from overhaul. For trains that only run through one short tunnel, the HVAC vents are particularly grimy; the ceiling paint is peeling, the walls are cracking where the door motors are, and the floors and seats are peeling (the latter due mostly to vandalism). |
