I remember when all of them were not air conditioned. But-- those cars had many more openable windows, and storm doors that stayed open, and (usually) working fans, so when the cars were moving there was always a breeze. Also, because none of the cars were air conditioned, the stations and tunnels weren't as hot as they are today. Getting into a car with broken air conditioning is much worse than getting into an old car that never had it. |

The a/c units on the R62A's need to be completely replaced. This has been going on for years. If 1 car is shopped, they lose all 5 cars for service.These stations are so hot, the cars don't have a chance to cool down between stations. |

Which is why they should NEVER have linked five cars together. I would go back to pairs like it used to be (or in some cases, a maximum of three cars) even if it's more expensive to retrofit some cars. |

Considering all things, like the state of the city and it's inhabitants, maybe this is a good thing. |

I always wonder what Robert Moses would have thought of this "congestion pricing" scheme, as that is 180 degrees from his philosophy (warped though it was in many ways). |

All that hot air being expelled has to go somewhere. Makes you wonder if anyone's complaining about poor tunnel ventilation. |
