Tuscarora Almanac for October 22

Tuscarora Almanac for October 22

2013 – from The Book of Last Runs
The last R-27 on the New York City Transit System, No 8145 departed from the 207th Street Yard today atop a flatbed trailer bound for the scrapper’s torch. This was one of a group of 230 cars built by the St Louis Car Division of General Steel Industries in 1960 and 1961. They lasted in service until 1989. 8145 later served as a Field Office in the 36th Street Yard and as a School Car in the Pitkin Yard.

Thank to Mysterious Friday 1986 for this information.

Larry, RedbirdR33

My sister got married on this date in 1988. Sadly, she and her husband have since divorced. That morning, I drove out to Hillcrest to pick up one of the guests and drove along Jamaica Ave. The abandoned el structure from 121st St. to Queens Blvd. was still intact.
