When those PCC's ran in Philadelphia, that jangling of the track brakes was pretty much a given since the early 1970's. I miss that....
-
Seattle used to have those but they took them out to save money. >.< Now they are about to take the trolley buses out too. Seattle has bad transportation. I mean, the best transportation is either, driving, walking, biking or bus. Light rail sucks. I am moving to San Francisco soon so I will be glad to have good transit.

You know the PCC streetcars in San Francisco look exactly and is the same that use in Toronto TTC system long time ago until 1995.

i didnt say SF had pcc cars from NY...i merely stated the first order for them was for NY(which was directed at you saying they came from philly)
-
Well "man", the only Brooklyn car to survive is in the Branford Trolley Museum in Connecticut. San Francisco has PCC cars from Philly; Newark, N. J and their own original MUNI cars. San Francisco has no PCC cars from New York. That racket is not authentic for an all-electric PCC car. I too like authentic sounds, if they belong there. That jingling racket would infact be authentic for a pre-war, air-electric PCC car. But in that case, it was the clasp brake shoes on the wheels.

whatever man, no need to get pushy...maybe not the jiggling necessarily but just in general i like the sound...reminds me of the old days(thats what i mean by feel authentic) and iono if by philly you mean east coast cuz the first order of them was for New York
-
It's not authentic at all. That jingling didn't occur until the track brakes wore out. When new and for decades, those cars didn't make that jingling sound. I should know......I rode them for years in Philadelphia....where they came from.
They simply need to replace the rubber fillers in the track brakes.
-
i like the sound of them...has an authentic feel to it...just my opinion
-
All of that jingling and jangling on MUNI's PCC cars is uncalled for. All they have to do is replace the rubber filler inserts in the track brakes. I don't know if it's a case of them not knowing that or not caring about it.
