As a former M/M, the main objection I had to the R-27/30 cars was the heavy spring tension on the deadmans’ buttons of the WH master controllers.LuchAAA has a fixation about R-27's. Let's see if he agrees with you or not. Bill Newkirk |

Were all these cars being taken to 207th Street Yard for restoration? I've heard both R-10s were in not that great shape. Could they be restored in time for next month's Coney Island nostalgia ride? |

Why wouldn't they be restored? Wouldn't they make a fantastic addition to TOMM?I didn't say they wouldn't be restored, I simply said it would be very time consuming to make them road worthy. So they wouldn't be running any time soon. Also the current climate of breakdowns especially some issues with R-46's would make restoration of the R-10's a lesser priority. I may be wrong about the above comment, but I still would like to see both R-10's restored to running condition. Bill Newkirk |

Yes, all the museum cars that were there in storage [R-10 #3184-3189, R-17 #6609, R-32 #3352-3353, R-36 ML #9542-9543 and the SBK locomotive #6] in that tunnel [A2 east of the TM] for a considerable long time. They are now up there at 207th Street Yard, while the R-42 #4572-4573 is currently a placeholder there for the D-Types.-William A. Padron ["IND"] |

I doubt that the R-10's will be seen on the TOMM for this year, as both of them have much work on them. Maybe next year in 2018, with the cars' 70th Anniversary looming up and about? Possibly, but I am reserving my own hopes yet on that one!-William A. Padron ["a.c.f.] |

Time is short to get them running and Road Tested. Maybe the aces at 207th Street can pull off another miracle! |

Certain R-21 and 22 cars were retrofitted as work motors and had their original ME-42 brake valves replaced by ME-43 brake valves. The master controllers were also replaced so that if there we not sufficient ME-42 brake valves available, the cab controls can be replaced by the parts that are currently available without compromising the external appearance of the cars |

Based upon my own viewing over what is at 207th Street Yard yesterday (7/4/2017), R-10 #3184 should be inside the facility now, while #3189 is outside the barn, coupled with SBK locomotive #6, R-1 #103 and WFLV #5655. All the other museum cars as transferred are also outside in the yard and coupled together of sorts (i.e. R-17 #6609, R-32 #3352-3353 and R-36 #9542-9543), and as visible as watching from the University Heights Bridge.Also, R-6 #1300 is outside the motor shop, and the museum cars used in this year's "Parade of Trains" (the AB's, the D's and R-1/9's #381-401-1000-1802), except the BRT elevated cars (#1404-1273-1407), were outside the barn, and are visible from the IRT #1 line at the 207th Street-10th Avenue elevated station (or when passing by while riding an uptown #1 train). -William A. Padron ["207"] |
