Nice shots - but are the women in these shots all vampiric?! Can't be because of the direct sunlight, assuming that the old tales are true. But such pale skin tone! They might need SPF 10^4 protection.... |

Great photos and kudos to Amanda, AEM7ac and the others for their effort. Qustion: why is Amanda carrying the Redbird by herself while the Slant is being carried by two men? |

But there are very few "terms of service rules" here. You can see them on the main page. So IMO, anything that is fare game and legal on the streets of NYC, is ok to post here. So go ahead and post everything that you want to post. Thanks. |

With due respect, anyone looking at an amateur parade float carried by human power in a feel-good event centered around fantastic sea creatures shouldn't reasonably expect completely accurate representation of reality. |

I still think there's hope, with early intervention. I mean, he didn't:1) Point out that IRT does not go to Coney Island and that the only time you'll see a Redbird is during garbage collection 2) That our R40 only had three doors 3) That the Redbird was missing window panels 4) That we left off the EXP and LOC on the R40 and nixed the pantograph gates 5) That the models were not build to scale |

Well, with prior instructions, you can avoid smallbany entirely. We do all the time. Heh. We're actually about 20 miles west of Smallbany and now that I no longer work for the state, only time I ever go down there is to take the bridge over to Hamtrak. |

What you guys should have done was paste photos of Dennis Riga at the RFW, or all the windows. May have caught some people by surprise. On the arnine trip, he wasn't a RFW type guy though, he would sit or stand at a side window, and wave at people across the platform. If you guys pasted his photos on the windows, some people may have had flashbacks. |

So at one point someone on our team (I think it was Amanda) said: you've lost the anti-climber off of the back of the R-40. And I was like, no, we never built one in the first place...We lost one set of windows and an anticlimber off the back :-P |
