R-32s off the E week of 12-21-08 The long goodbye.

At Canal Street southbound 10:30 AM 12-23-08. The last week of R-32 equipment on the E. Nice guard light action.
(I saw a 32 on the E in late May 2009, dont think it was a daily thing though).

@4P3607 that means nothing. yard workers love to fiddle with the rollsigns.

@thesubwaynut ok I definetly shouldn't have posted that.

I saw In coney Island yard the other day a 4 car set of R68 set to (E).

The whole train was set to that, though It is unusual to see 75 footers on the E even thgought there use to be occasional R46 on the E.

@4P3607 a little too late to the party

[4P3607]

@thesubwaynut Actually now theres 50 R42 in service, and the R160 will replace the remaining R44.

maybe I shouldn't have posted this...

"you have to go upstairs, i dont know the street names"

[campsports3]

[thesubwaynut]

the R32s are the only subway cars that can safely run on the C
