Music to my ears hearing those cars go around that curve!!!!! I can't wait till they have fan trips this summer to the Rockaways or to Coney Island. Hey Will they ever take out the train of many colors again ?
If you want to see it from inside the train, get on a downtown 6, and look out the window after the train leaves Brooklyn Bridge. It'll turn around on the City Hall loop and come back into Brooklyn Bridge station as an uptown 6. Then make your escape.
The trains in the olden days had doors on the extreme ends of the cars instead of the middle so the gaps were not that big. If things got too extreme they used gap fillers on the platforms.

Me 2....that's why the R-142A is my favorite subway car!
JamaicaQnzFreak 3 years ago
I think back then they probably used similar trains like the R-1/9 subway cars on the IRT Line or they used a bridge like platform!
